21 August 1944
During WWII, two Japanese prisoners captured on Sung Shan Hill by the Chinese when the Japanese were blasted out of their strong pill-boxes by 6000 pounds of dynamite set off under them. Wounded and dazed by the blast many prisoners asked to be killed when captured. Chinese insisted on treating them as prisoners of war.
