Sept. 3, 1964 - At least two Japanese soldiers from World War II are still hiding out in the jungle 20 years after Guam’s capture by American forces (pictured), the Guam police and United States military officials said today.
A construction worker reported last week that he had seen the two. He said one of them had pointed a rifle at him and pulled the trigger, but nothing had happened.
Guam Police Captain José Quintanilla said he believed the two holdouts, bearded and bedraggled, were holed up somewhere in the northeastern Guam jungle where the Japanese made their last stand during World War II.
