Where could I read more about Japanese war criminals being given high positions in the US Army after the war? The closest I'm able to find is that Shiro Ishii (director of Unit 731) managed to negotiate immunity from prosecution in exchange for data from their experiments, but he was not given any US government or military position, nor was his second in command, Masaji Kitano. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shir%C5%8D_Ishii

You are right. Sorry, I lied. I thought I had read something about it, but I must not have because I can’t find it my self. Perhaps I was thinking about Operation Paperclip, but more likely I might have read an unreliable claim on social media and not checked if it was true.
