It has been 100 years since the POW camp for German soldiers was established in Marugame during WWI. It is no longer possible to hear the stories directly from those who were involved in the war. However, in order to get closer to the historical truth, it is not a perfect way to rely only on the recorded information. The unclear points in the archives could be clarified by the oral history. To this end we have interviewed the grandchildren of the person concerned. Though there is no way to contact the grandfather himself, we can hear the stories from the grandchildren instead, even though they have never met their grandfather.
