This also wasn't released theatrically like the other WB cartoons of this era. It was made specifically for U.S. military screening audiences (as a wartime training animated film "reminding" soldiers of the dangers they could get into if they actually behaved like Snafu does in these shorts). Hence, why Snafu also gets away with saying "Hell" in this cartoon.
In a way Japan was even more savage than Germany in their war crimes. Starving POWs, treating everyone in captured territory as subhuman. Remember they thought of surrender as cowardice.
whats worse than that is what Stalin did in killing anyone who wasn't Communist enough, AND he also killed Jews. He ended up murdering 52 million people we think. And Hitler had he finished his work the same number would probably be right. We'll never know.
