    There was a German soldier who didn't surrender until 1954 because he was trapped in a well stocked bunker for almost a decade, surprised he wasn't in this video.

      I believe I've heard something similar pertaining to a German soldier or soldiers being trapped in a bunker on the eastern front if I remember correctly for some years after the war but I'm pretty sure it's just a story but it could be true I've never looked into it myself

      I've only ever seen about the group of soldiers on svalsbard who were part of a meteorological station who's radio broke. Apparently they exhausted their supplies by August 45 when some Norwegian sealers picked them up and brought them home. That eastern front story sounds like lore.

      So he didn't hold the line for a decade (ten years).

    This happened to civilians too. A few years ago I saw a documentary about a man and his family who had fled deep into the woods in Russia during WWII and fled so deep they didn't know the war ended and it wasn't until the 1980s or 90s that they were discovered via helicopter and the living family members (so it was the children and then eventually one woman) lived there and twice a year or so she'd get supplies she wouldn't otherwise have access to dropped. It was one of those tragic yet somehow heartwarming and aspiring stories.

    My father who served in the JGSDF did not respect Hiroo Onoda he heard him speak when he returned to Japan and he shamed modern Japan and my father referred to him as a murderer for continuing to eliminate Filipino civilians. My husband and father-in-law are both combat veterans so my views are a little different.

    Here in Montenegro, ex Yugoslavia, there was a former Chetnk fighter, Vladimir Shipcic, who hid until 1957 when he was officially cornered and eliminated by the secret police, although there are many uncertainties surrounding the claim (there is a supposed photo of him jumping from the cliff into a river made by one of the policemen) and theory is that he actually managed to survive and escape to USA. My grandfather told me that he once spoke with his cousin and when he asked him about that theory, he supposedly exclaimed "Of course he is still alive. Who do you think is sending me money from America?".

    7:03 Animation Mistake: Bayonet rings are incorrectly behind the Front Sight, those need to be located on the front bloc of the Front sight. Those are also type 30 Bayonets which are compatible with Type 38 Rifles and are probably more Iconic than thier more appropriate type 38 bayonets made during the war without the curved hilt guard.
