In 1945, Japanese officer Hiroo Onoda who took part in WWII in the Philippine jungle received a message that the war was over. Onoda decided that it was the enemies’ propaganda and continued fighting the USA together with his 3 soldiers.

2 soldiers returned home, one was killed, and Hiroo Onoda stayed in the jungle for almost 30 years. In February 1974, he was found and surrendered to authorities. Though he had killed Philippine soldiers, the circumstances were taken into consideration, and Onoda avoided the death penalty and returned home.
