Tetsuo Sato, 107, Imphal survivor (WWII)

Tetsuo Sato was born in 1919 and lives in Murakami, Niigata, Japan. In 1944, during World War II, he fought in the Battle of Imphal and Kohima as a squad leader in the 58th Infantry Regiment of the Imperial Japanese Army. He was wounded at Kohima, but he made it home alive.

This channel records his testimony and his life today at 107. He speaks in the Niigata dialect, so every video has subtitles in modern Japanese, plus English subtitles.

Questions for Mr. Sato are welcome in the comments. We will ask him when we visit.
