In The Battle of Okinawa in spite of overwhelming odds both men and women refused to surrender to the Americans but chose death. 12,000 Americans died in that battle and about 400,000 Japanese. Americans cleaned out pockets of resistance as they found little groups hiding in caves holding out to the end. After Truman heard of the tenacity of the Japanese living on the island of Okinawa, he decided to use the Atomic Bomb. Fewer Japanese died from the two Atomic Bombs than had died on Okinawa.
