Laura Hillenbrand Quotes

Though Under Great Pressure To Conform To A Culture Of Brutality, A Few Guards Refused To Participate In The Violence. In One Incident, A Captive Was Clubbed So Savagely That He Was Certain He Was Going To Be Killed. In The Middle Of The Assault, The Attacking Guard Was Called Away, And A Guard Knows As Hirose Was Ordered To Finish The Beating. Out Of Sight Of Other Guards, Hirose Told The Captive To Cry Out As If He Were Being Struck, Then Pounded His Club Harmlessly Against The Floor. The Two Acted Out Their Parts Until It Seemed Enough "beating" Had Been Done. The Captive Believed That Hirose May Have Saved His Life.
