Content: | This is a draft of a report from Colonel ÔTA to Lieutenant General KATÔ, Chief of Staff of the South East Area Army, regarding the allegation that the reserve of anti-malaria drugs for the 2nd working group had been secretly distributed among the group's high-ranking officials prior to their repatriation. Upon repatriation, remaining provisions were to have been transferred to other camps. ÔTA was particularly concerned over this allegation, as repatriated Japanese journalists had began to write scathing reports on affairs in Rabaul. |
