Caves of Iwo Jima Contain Bodies Ed Takahashi Heads

IWO JIMA. — Unknown
thousands of Japanese soldiers
lie buried in honeycombed caves
beneath Iwo Jima while Ameri
can Marines ironically practice on
the nine-year old battlefield to
defend Japan.
An Air Force chaplain who has
studied the fantastic defenses
said, ‘Tye seen at least 5,000
bodies.”
A Marine engineer said, “There
may be 10,000 bodies here. We all
know that there were 20.000 Ja
panese here and only a handful
got off. It stands to reason the
rest are still down in the caves.”
The bodies are not buried.
They rest where the men died or
were carried.
The caves have been placed off
limits by the military. However,
many bodies have been uncovered
accidentally by demolition squads
exploding old ammunition and
sealing off caves for maneuvers.
Chaplain Capt. S. Bieber, Wil
liamsburg, Pa., has made an ex
tensive study of the underground
positions since he came to the
island in October 1953. He has
mapped 18 fantastic underground
honeycombs scattered over the
five-mile long island. However,
there are still hundreds of smaller
caves still unmapped.
Capt. Bieber is confident he is
on the track of the general’s cave,
last command post of Lt. Gen.
Tadamichi Kuribayashi, who de
fended the island to his death.
The general’s fate has never been
conclusively proved. With him
may be documents detailing the
full grim picture of the under
ground defense.
Many bodies rest where the
men committed suicide. Some line
passageways where they were
placed in an effort to keep the
Marines from determining the ex
tent of Japanese casualties. Some
wounded were apparently simply
abandoned to die. Some are found
in the bunks carved in the sides
of the caves.
Many Japanese were buried in
mass graves after the Marines
seized the island. Bodies later
"ere taken from some of the
caves and buried. But many caves,
including the mysterious gen
