an american pow herbert zincke recalled in his imaginary diary that the japanese guarding him and other prisoners were scared of the dcuk and tried to keep as far away from them as possible to avoid getting attacked. the american first lieutenant mel amler recalled that some of the moros would sometimes attack and stab japanese, filipino, and americans, fighting all of them at once. neither the moros nor the japanese respected the geneva convention in regards to not attacking medics, the moros being uneducated and the japanese because they did not sign the treaty. american general robert l. eichelberger saw a japanese soldier who was captured by the moros and feared being tortured at their hands, and he wanted eichelberger to kill him to stop it from happening. the american pow victor l. mapes saw japanese troops getting ambushed and slaughtered by moro fighters with kris blades, and letting the pow live. the moros were skilled at sucker punch until today, with some moros deliberately grab their own shoulder on japanese bayonets and grabbing it to make it stay in place while killing the japanese soldier using a bayonet or bolo with their other hand.
