The Indonesians consulted with the Japanese on how best to take Nakamura so that he didn’t do something, and, having determined his exact location, lured out a 55-year-old soldier loyal to the emperor with the performance of the Japanese anthem and the flag of imperial Japan. It happened on December 8, 1974. The soldier did not apologize for being alive, but bitterly admitted that one wrong decision in 1945 (he accepted the news of the end of the war for enemy propaganda) cost him 30 years of his life.
