Guam in Allied Memoir Details Japanese Occupation
Henry C. Anderson recounts Guam's fall to Japanese forces on December 12 with mass reprisals against Chamorro families and wide looting. He describes Americans sheltering in the hills, the flag change at Plaza de Espana, prisoners taken, and the Japs’ rough rule in Agana with酒 and ruined churches turned into troop plays.
