Battle Of Ramree Island: February 19, 1945, during a fierce battle on the island Ramram (Burma), English marines lured the Japanese army in the mangrove swamps, which lived thousands of saltwater crocodiles. It is estimated the Saltwater Crocodiles devoured over 500 Japanese soldiers.

Over 500 Japanese escaped, and historians have dismissed the claims that hundreds of Japanese were

killed by the crocodiles. Instead the majority of the deaths are attributed to Wounds and thirst.

Homunculus_316 The British did not spend a single bullet or shel. The report of the Japanese army colonel Yasu Yunuko declassified last year, testifies:

 "Ramram of mangrove swamps from

the detachment returned alive only 22 soldiers and 3 officers." Check the special commission of the military court, which conducted an investigation 2 months later, showed that the water the area of wetlands, an area of 3 square kilometers, 24% is from human blood.

l'd say it's just a mistranslation, since the claim is obviously stupid and impossible: round 3km down to 1, convert to cm=10" cm.Assume 1cm of water per unit area = 101° cm.5L= 5000cm. 500*5000 cm=2.5 *10 cm.round up to 10.Then 10/ 101 =10 ~0.1% not 24%. Down and dirty estimates like that which are wildly conservative (only 1 cm of

water / cm, rounding down the area, and rounding up the blood volume) can be done almost instantly

and inform you better than simple intuition, which should be screaming at anyone that the claim is

nonsense -- so nonsensical that you have to assume it's a mistake. Without looking into this further, l'd

assume that it meant something like, "24% of sites within the 3km area used for testing returned positive for traces of human blood." That's a claim

that I could believe wasn't insane.
