Title
Clouds
of the
rising
sun
:
Japan's
chemical
weapons
program
during
World
War
II
Degree Program
History
Abstract
Though
not
widely
recognized
,
Japan
developed
and
used
chemical
weapons
during
the
years
leading
up
to and
including
the
Second
World
War
. As will
become
clear
in this
study
,
although
both
the
Japanese
army
and
navy
produced
chemical
weapons
,
only
the
army
used
them in
combat
. The
navy
forbore
chemical
weapons
use
primarily
because
of the
threat
of
American
retaliation
in
kind
. On the
other
hand
, the
army
faced
no
such
fear
in
China
and,
therefore
,
used
chemical
weapons
on
numerous
occasions
in
combat
against
Chinese
forces
.
Many
Japanese
citizens
still
bear
the
scars
of
exposure
from
working
at the
chemical
weapons
factory
on the
island
of
Okunoshima
.
Recently
,
Chinese
citizens
have
found
abandoned
chemical
weapons
buried
by the
Japanese
in
haste
during
their
retreat
from
China
in the
latter
days
of the
war
. These
discoveries
have
sickened
and
killed
numerous
Chinese
civilians
since
the
war
ended
. The
ongoing
suffering
of
Chinese
and
Japanese
citizens
as a
result
of
Japan's
chemical
weapons
program
makes
this
study
worthwhile
as that
program
produced
implications
that
still
resonate
today
.
