As a Canadian, I am horrified by the decision to cross a mountain in January as "training." That's not training, that's worst case scenario ever. They should have gone in October or early November so everyone could have safely learned DO NOT GET WET WHEN IT'S COLD and for the love of all that's sane, don't walk into a river. Then they should have gone again in March to solidfy lessons learned and learn new ones brought to them by slush. Then work up to January month by month. Even Canadian military training exercises get frostbite incidents on occasion.

I'm assuming (since they weren't mentioned) that these troops had neither skis nor snowshoes. Moving through deep snow without some kind of flotation is extremely slow and exhausting. Trying to drag a heavy sled or carry a heavy pack only makes it worse. Add in a blizzard, brutally cold temperatures, and totally inadequate clothing and the result was inevitable.

@ceu160193 Жыл бұрын

Also it seems like they had no firewood or even basic tents to establish proper camp with shelter and warm food, which are necessary even in normal mountain operations, let alone when weather turns bad.

@Jean-vr7vj Жыл бұрын

None of this matters as long as you have experience in such situations. Poor leadership was the most striking for me out of this whole story. A proper leader is a leader for a reason. Regardless of the difficulties various things couldve been done/tried. Simplest of all being, like another commenter already mentioned to lighten up the sled loads. No snowshoes - no problem. Take turns breaking trail and move in a colon. Take breaks often and rub up cold body parts to get the blood flowing. Even without tents you can separate into smaller groups in close proximity to one another and make little camps, hanging half the overcoats on branches sticking from the ground and the other half laying on the ground. Then everyone sleep close together to share body heat. As for food and water... yeah, plan better ahead. Crossing an ice cold river? Show me a river that hasnt froze at -40. Even niagara falls freezes (well not completely but we're talking about a river not a waterfall), and I've seen the amount of water falling down each second at niagara. So either the temperature wasnt -40, or the river was frozen solid. But lets say it was pretty damn cold and the river wasnt frozen. The way to cross it would be to strip completely naked, hauling your belongings above the waterline and cross as fast as possible. On the other shore you dry yourself as quick and as well as you can and you put on your dry clothes. Cross at a calm section of the river of course. You dont know where you are? Youve got plenty of manpower. Set up groups of lets say 30 persons and send each group in a spread out fashion ahead (kind of like aircraft reconnaissance over vast water). Order each group to leave a man every 30 meters so nobody loses contact. This way you can recon 900 meters ahead and not lose a single soul. Once everyone is back you can make a decision based on the findings. Move 900 meters and repeat. They wouldve need to do this just twice and wouldve reached their target, guaranteed! With no losses. Not even a single grieving mother. And everyone wouldve been sipping that beloved fermented wine. Leadership, yujin. Do you speak it?

@norrecvizharan1177 Жыл бұрын

I mean sorta, but simple objects and details like that kinda have a bigger and bigger difference the longer the trip is. Also crossing a river naked is easier said than done when it's well past freezing, especially after spending so long in a freezing environment to begin with. So it basically can be attributed to both lack of gear (cause let's face it, an army runs on it's stomach, and not being able to consume any they had stockpiled was probably the biggest killer in the long run) and poor leadership.@@Jean-vr7vj

Clothing yes, the cotton uniforms would become damp from sweat when pulling those sleds. Then it’s only a matter of time before hypothermia sets in. One should always stay uncomfortably cold when doing heavy work in those conditions. Then put the layers back on when work is done. The leadership here didn’t have the first clue about cold weather survival. In those conditions, deep snows….blizzard, small 2-3 man teams could have constructed snow caves to capture body heat. Frozen food brought in and thawed. Then wait out the miserable conditions until weather improved. -40 degrees is pointless to be trudging through with what they had. Get warm, eat, hydrate and rest until things improved. It reminds me of an incident I read about in the Arctic. A fellow was traveling from one outpost to another. He was accompanied by an Inuit woman. They were operating a dog team and sled. They encountered a blizzard. The man, from the lower 48, had what was considered to be the best parka of the day, lined with squirrel skin. He panicked as he couldn’t consider anything but getting through the storm and to his destination. He worked and worked, trying to get the sled moving. He wore that parka the whole time. They found him dead in it. The little Inuit woman just holed up in the snow, making a little cavity to shelter in and waited things out. She survived just fine.

Classic errors making a difficult task impossible. You plan the route in better weather so you know where you are going. The sledges were obviously too big: again training to use them, you want lighter loads to cross mountains. The biggest mistake was not turning back when the sleds got stuck, pressing on was pure stupidity.

@ceu160193 Жыл бұрын

Biggest mistake was not increasing rations for soldiers to account for increased spending of energy in mountains. Army marches on it's stomach, after all, and in difficult terrain soldiers need a lot more nutrition. Big sleds by itself aren't an issue, but when your soldiers are weak and exhausted, it does become a problem. Another mistake was not setting up camp, when it became clear, that situation is bad - sleds can be used as improvised walls against cold winds, so you can have fire protected from wind.

"A significate amount of snowfall?" The Hakkoda mountains in central Aomori are literally the snowiest place on Earth. I lived near Hirosaki for 3 years. It is mindboggling how much snow the Tsugaru region gets. Even on the Tsugaru plain, we got 60-90cm of snowfall every day in winter, at least. And within the Hakkoda mountains themselves, it's a lot more. They also have a lot colder temperatures than the plains and volcanic gases which can pool in low-lying areas. If you ever go hiking or skiing there, do NOT ever leave the marked trails.

“The second night was the coldest night recorded in Japan” bruh I’m convinced that the second people set out on an expedition, nature literally takes it personally. The Franklin expedition stumbling into the coldest summers the Canadian arctic saw in thousands of years so their ships never got unstuck after 1847 and they all eventually perished, this Hakkoda expedition starting *2 days before the coldest night in japan’s history* causing 20% of the expedition to just freeze to death the second night and only 11/210 surviving the journey. It’s like Murphy’s law but specifically for the cold. Or maybe it’s normal Murphy’s Law but the things that go wrong in the cold are way worse than normal.

I used to do some mountaineering. We had been climbing all summer and had just gotten cocky. A buddy and I climbed Sloan Peak in the Cascade Mountains in WA, and on the descent got turned around in a dense fog. There was finally a brief window in the fog and we could see the ridge with our camp in the distance. By the time I took out my compass and pointed it north to our camp it said south. We were on the wrong side of the mountain, in a fog, with night falling. Lost in the wilderness is a feeling unlike any other. I do not recommend it. It only took us a day to bushwack down the mountain, then through a devils club swamp, then a bear trail, finally got to the valley floor to find no road or human trail. So we walked in the river for a few miles until we got back to a trail and then had to go face the biggest hazard of the whole trip. Our angry wives who were worried sick. We were both grounded.

As a former boy scout who was second in command for my group of scouts, I would like to add another reason as to why this failed, with that being that they didn't train the troops throughout spring, summer and autumn in the years leading up to this. If they had done that for a long period of time, they would have known the terrain like the back of their hands and so they would also have had a lot of ideas as to what it would take to make the logistics make sense across the mountains during the winter period. Worst part of this reason is that it isn't even something we've only found out in the last couple of decades. No, it's actually been known since ancient times that having a local regiment knowing the terrain in which they're stationed, like the back of their hands, is vital for securing a victory in those areas, if battles ever were to arise there. Even the fkn samurais knew this and they preceded this expedition. The Japanese Imperial Forces at this time literally disregarded the knowledge of their ancestors and decided they knew better. If that ain't stupid, I don't know what is.

Paradoxical undressing deserves a more thorough explanation. When it's really cold, your body tries to save the heat for the vital organs by lessening the blood flow to skin and extremeties. That's why you can have your fingers and toes freeze solid but your core body temperature is still sorta-OK. When you get to late stages of hypothermia, your body at some point just plain gives up on trying to keep that sweet, sweet heat for continued survival and just says f it, the superficial blood vessels dilate and let the warmer blood all over your body instead of trying to conserve it. So you get a final flash of being hot before dying of cold.

But the troops suffered terribly and it was a Japanese victory by luck. The Chinese Army troops were actually better prepared for the winter weather. Then, faced with the idea of fighting Russians in Manchuria, which is just the south edge of Siberia, the Japanese Army decided to brush up on winter warfare. Hence a two-day training exercise.

In 1996 a German family ventured into Death Valley national park and disappeared. There was a large search and rescue effort but they couldn't be found and the search was called off. Tom Mahood was involved with the search for their remains from 2009 - 2010 and has a fascinating write up on his blog site otherhand. I think it fits the theme of what you do on your channel and a version of it narrated in your style would be fantastic.

One of the probable main reasons the Captain was in charge and not the Major was because this was a training exercise. I have no doubt that the Major, while providing assistance, also evaluated the Captain on his ability to lead and coordinate his lines of effort. Normally in training you have some kind of evaluator or adjudicator that’s a higher rank to evaluate the trainees.

I've camped out in -35F and it hurts to breathe. Even in a sleeping bag rated to -40F I was waking up shivering. Making breakfast the next morning was an ordeal since I could only take my hands out of my mittens for a few minutes at a time to fiddle with the metal stove, then I had to get my hands back in my mittens and another 5 minutes or so to rewarm them.

A lot of modern camping supplies are more targeted towards being as lightweight as possible and because of this require all sorts of “requirements” to function correctly. Sure you can buy the best down jacket/sleeping bag on the market but it needs to be washed in special formulas and dried in a specific manner between every use and you can never leave it compact for long periods of time. Additionally, you need a floor liner if you need your sleeping bag to reach that advertised “comfort” degree. Don’t get me wrong, modern advancements have a purpose but there is a reason that animal materials work the best. They are just ridiculously heavy.

I've done cross country mountain biking and cold weather hikes before cell phones and GPS. My first real ride was a 108 miles each way along a river with a friend who was also 15. Now almost 40 years later I still keep a few large black garbage bags and a cutting tool as a bag has saved my life at least twice and made winters exploring so much better by wearing one over me and my pack plus I can pedal freely or hike up or down rough terrain wearing one. After falling through ice far from home or anything warm I put a bag on to keep what body heat I had while stripping down with a fire pit already awaiting which is another story in which it's an honor to be known as Fireman Dave. Just my comment on cold weather experiences using a tip passed along to me by my friend in high-school who loved the outdoors as much as I.

Swedish uniforms at the time where more like wool jacket, pants, hat, helmet-cover, thermal shirt, baclava, vest, leather boots, and a winter coat to go OVER all of that.

I can personally attest that it's not always altitude that can mess with your mental faculties, it can be the brutal cold. Even though my situation was nowhere near this nightmare, I fell through the ice while duck hunting as a teenager, well away from my friend's dad and the car we came in. 7 degrees F and while walking back to the car, only about a mile or so, I was totally in a mental fog. Fingers had minor frostbite and thawing out was suprisingly painful. Can't imagine what these guys went through.

Most modern equipment isnt rated for that cold. -30 is like an expedition to the North Pole.
