I read more than usual, so I won't summarize it. The book's style of switching point of view has a good style. Because it's not first person and more narrator detailing in a chronological order.

The Japs did have to pay the soldiers doing labor, which was everyone.They paid them the lowest they could because of the Geniva people i think. :)
