** Fraser admitted that even fifty years after the war, he still had misgivings about Japanese people because of his formative experiences during the war. At the same time, he states that upon watching old Japanese soldiers who survived the war being interviewed on TV, he also gets the sense that they're not so different. All in all, he's not a blind bigot, and is willing to let old enmities lie despite his gut reactions.

** Fraser admitted that even fifty years after the war, he still had misgivings about Japanese people because of his formative experiences during the war. [[note]]As [=WW2=] recedes further into history, younger British people need to be reminded that those who survived the war in the Far East ''will'' have this opinion about Japan and the Japanese. It's inevitable, and like MacDonaldFraser, many old Fourteenth Army soldiers will concede today's Japanese are different from their grandparents' generation.

* ChurchLady: Fraser wrote about one of his grandmothers, a member of the Presbyterian Church of Scotland, who had a habit of sitting in the front pew and glaring at the minister to ensure he said nothing in the sermon that she'd disapprove of. Ministers of the Church tended to find this intimidating. He speculated that she would end up sitting on the right hand of God and ensuring the Creator would do nothing she disapproved of.
