"The Chichijima incident (also known as the Ogasawara incident) occurred in late 1944. Japanese soldiers killed eight American airmen on Chichi Jima, in the Bonin Islands, and consumed four of the airmen. Nine airmen escaped from their planes after being shot down during bombing raids on Chichi Jima, a tiny island 700 miles (1,100 km) south of Tokyo, in September 1944. Eight of the airmen, Lloyd Woellhof, Grady York, James “Jimmy” Dye, Glenn Frazier Jr, Marvell “Marve” Mershon, Floyd Hall, Warren Earl Vaughn, and an unknown airman were captured and eventually executed. The ninth, and only one to evade capture, was future U. S. President George H. W. Bush, then a 20-year-old pilot. After the war, it was discovered that the captured airmen had been beaten and tortured before being executed. The airmen were beheaded on the orders of Lt Gen. Yoshio Tachibana ( American authorities reported that Japanese officers then ate parts of the bodies of four of the men." (from Wikipedia). Near Fine in Near Fine dust jacket .
