<HTML>soryy kurt but you are wrong in more than one point.
you say
"The RN felt that U-boat men had done many things outside the rules of war.."
??? This sounds as if the RN never ever operated subs themselves???
"Guess how many Japanese (IJN) officers were brought to trial for those events? (It's a number less than one)"
There were definitely more thatn one.Just lately I saw a filmed version of a jap general and others being tried and hanged for what he did to allied airmen.
So considered that this shows ony a fraction of the processes that took place after the war guess new numbers of tried ijn personnell.</HTML>
