This reminds me of my refusal to surrender to the PS2 during the 6th gen war. I'm still holding out hope, and fighting every day until the original Xbox is victorious!

Only 140 million or so more console sales to go! We got this!

Well I guess you're not familiar with how brutal the Japanese soldiers were in WW2, especially against the Chinese.  In the Nanking Massacre, Japanese soldiers would cut open pregnant women and stick the fetus on their bayonets and parade around the street.  They would rape babies and 80 year old ladies.  They committed some of the most horrifying atrocities in history of mankind.  In the Manilla Massacre, not only did they rape the women, they raped the men and children too.

And then there was Unit 731 which was part of the Japanese army.  This is a video produced by the History Channel, if you didn't know about Unit 731, this will completely blow your mind, and is one of the reasons that I feel ashamed sometimes of having Japanese heritage:

And after watching that video, you can then see why when Japanese officials visit the Yasukuni war shrine, China and South Korea get so outraged about it.

I dont know wasnt there the american movie about tibet. Where chinese soldiers said because of Mao People ate their own babies???

Seriously ofc those crimes are horrible and i like chinese people, but thats human nature that stuff happens all the time?? what did the mongols do to the han chinese?? what did the han chinese do the different tribes before that?? didnt the dai have to flew to Vietnam, but they were lucky, i havent studied chinese history but i believe i read in a book that an entire race disapeared from the face of earth in China.
What did shang Kai check or what was his name and his enemy Mao do??
Did you know that Shang Kai check was acting like a Mafia Boss in China and Mao Killed millions of people???
Its sad and its bad. still you should honor your fallen soldiers. BEcause no mater what they are did they are still you ancestors.

Besides I still believe the opium war was much more devestating, and no1 screams the evil opium war.

Canada treats their veterans with a great deal of respect too.

Personally, much more for the WWII era stuff more than modern wars. No one has a beef with Canada, and we don't play anywhere near as an important role in modern warfare as we used to. I feel like if you join the Canadian army now, you're just asking for trouble. Sucks if you die but what did you expect? You went out of your way to choose to do this.

you know Shang Kai Shek tortured Mao supporters and Mao lied to people who supported him. What happened to people who supported Mao? he killed nearly the entire intelligencia.

dont get me wrong i find china fascinating, there people are very loyal. I heard chinese businessman you can rely on their word alone (not all of course but the good ones)

But still you must be objective

Japanese holdouts (残留日本兵 Zanryū nipponhei^?, "remaining Japanese soldiers") or stragglers were Japanese soldiers in the Pacific Theatre who, after the August 1945 surrender of Japan ending World War II, either adamantly doubted the veracity of the formal surrender due to strong dogmatic or militaristic principles, or simply were not aware of it because communications had been cut off by the United States island hopping campaign.

Wouldn't exactly call it a band playing. And The Last Post isn't only for the brits.

Here is a vid of rememberance day nov 11. And this is done every day since 1928 to remember WW1 soldiers.

oh yes it was world war one. Anyway i thought it was in remembrance of the british soldiers and paid by the brits. My Memory is not the best

If you are ultra-nationalist then nothing short of winning is good enough for them. For them, it's literally "my country, right or wrong". 
Also, it seems to be difficult for any soldier to return to a peaceful life. War causes huge psychological problems

It is a testament to how deep the "Kokutai" indoctrination system took root in some individuals.
