Washington Decision Makers, Supported By The American Occupation Leader, General Douglas Macarthur, Sought To Acquire Japans Biologicalwarfare Expertise To Gain An Advantage Over The Soviet Union, Suspected Of Developing Both Biological And Nuclear Weapons. Ultimately, U.S. Nationalsecurity Goals Left The Victims Of Unit 731 Without Vindication. Decades Later, Evidence Of The Unit 731 Atrocities Still Troubles Relations Between China And Japan.
