About this listen
The Buyo Maru Incident uncovers one of the most troubling and least-known events of the Pacific War. After torpedoing a Japanese transport ship in 1943, the American submarine USS Wahoo opened fire on survivors in the water — men who were believed to be enemy troops, but who included unarmed Indian POWs and laborers. Through survivors’ memories, wartime reports, and long-buried controversy, the series traces how a wartime victory became a moral shadow. It is a story of confusion, fear, and the terrible choices made in the war, where heroes and tragedy share the same horizon.
