秦郁彦氏、尾形美明氏、加瀬英明氏に対し、" Composite Report on three Korean Navy Civilians List No. 78, dated 28 March 1945, "Special Questions on Koreans" (U.S. National Archives)というタイトルのついた文書の公開を切望する。 お願いにいたるまでの経緯
秦郁彦氏の『慰安婦と戦場の性』(1999年、新潮選書)において、秦先生は、官憲が「強制連行」するはずがないとする主張の根拠を、米国国立公文書館(National Archives and Records Administration、以下NARA)にあるという文書に求めている。そのくだりを引用してみる。
Additionally, in 1945, in depositions of three Korean civilians in the employment of the Japanese Army, they stated “In the battle zones of the Pacific War, the Korean comfort women we met were all either volunteers, or women who had been sold by their parents. If any of the women had been victims of coercion, all Koreans, young and old, would have risen up in rage, regardless of whatever retaliation, and killed the Japanese.”
This is taken from “Composite Report Three Korean Civilians List No. 78,” dated 28 March, 1945, “Special Questions on Koreans” (U.S. National Archives).
The second can be found in depositions taken from three Korean civilian employees of the Japanese army, who stated the following: In the battle zones of the Pacific War, the Korean comfort women we met were all either volunteers, or women who had been sold by their parents. If the women had been victims of coercion, all the Koreans both young and old would have risen up in rage, and regardless of whatever retaliation, killed the Japanese (from Composite Report on Three Korean Civilians, List No. 78, dated 28 March 1945, “Special Question on Koreans” in the U.S. National Archives).
