Research Abstract |
This research project consists of two parts, one is the historical research on Japanese biological warfare R&D activities before and during the World War II, and the other is the analysis on U.S. B.W. research program after the W.W.II. This project finds new documents which describe the stream of the information, which includes experimental data based on human experimentation, from Japan to US just after the W.W.II. This project also discovers documents of J.C.S. on retaliatory use of chemical weapon against Japan in 1945. Those shows the procedure of US preparation in case of CW attack.
