After 2 weeks of sick, crazy, and miserable… We return Monday morning at 6am!!!! And BOY HOWDY! Is there anything strange to talk about?

Hey everyone! John is very sick, so we will be off for a few days until he is back on his feet. See you soon!

On the evening of 24 January 1972, Yokoi was discovered by two local men checking shrimp traps along a small river on Talofofo. They had assumed Yokoi was a villager from Talofofo, but he thought his life was in danger and attacked them. They managed to subdue him and carried him out of the jungle.

Yokoi later said that he expected the local men to kill him at first but was surprised when instead they allowed him to eat hot soup at their home before turning him over to the authorities. He was in relatively good health, but slightly anemic due to a lack of salt in his diet according to doctors at Guam Memorial Hospital. His diet included wild nuts, mangos, papaya, shrimp, snails, frogs, and rats.

"It is with much embarrassment that I return," he said upon his return to Japan in March 1972. The remark quickly became a popular saying in Japan. He had known since 1952 that World War II had ended but feared coming out of hiding, explaining that "We Japanese soldiers were told to prefer death to the disgrace of getting captured alive."

Yokoi was one of the last three Japanese "holdout" soldiers discovered.

We only ended up with a few creepy things today… I somehow got out of buying the hand carved tribal mask again. 😅
