曾在二戰期間以台籍日本兵身分從軍、戰後遭蘇聯俘虜的吳正男,10月24日因肝細胞癌辭世,享耆壽99歲。吳正男9月才出席紀錄片「冰封的記憶」東京放映會,分享西伯利亞戰俘經歷。他當時表示,人生最大的幸福,就是從戰場上活著回來。

日本李登輝之友會今天發布訃聞表示,吳正男9月18日因身體不適住進橫濱市醫院,隨後確診肝細胞癌,10月1日接受導管治療,15日入住養老院,24日安詳辭世。依照本人遺願,家屬已於11月5日舉行家族葬,並婉拒奠儀、供花及弔唁。

根據日本李登輝之友會,吳正男1926年出生於台灣雲林斗六,少年時赴日求學,二戰期間志願加入日本陸軍,擔任轟炸機通信員。1945年日本戰敗時,他在朝鮮北部遭蘇聯軍隊俘虜,被送往中亞從事勞動,直到1947年才獲釋。

二戰期間約有20萬名台灣人以日本兵身分參戰,其中約3萬人死亡。日本戰敗後,約60萬名日軍被蘇聯送往戰俘營,史稱「西伯利亞抑留」,目前已知至少19名台籍日本兵有此經歷。

吳正男今年9月5日出席台灣導演許明淳執導的紀錄片「冰封的記憶」東京放映會,當時談起戰俘歲月,仍以「幸運」形容自己,因為相較於其他遭俘虜者,他只被拘留約2年,且所在地最低溫約攝氏零下25度,並非零下50度的嚴寒地區。

吳正男表示,自己始終認為人生最大的幸福,就是能夠從戰場上活著回來。比起自己的經歷,他更希望社會記得那些未能生還的人,強調每名戰亡者都有自己的人生與記憶,不應隨時間被遺忘。

吳正男多年來致力為台籍戰亡者爭取紀念場所,經過數十年奔走,終於在2025年夏天於橫濱市磯子區設立紀念場所,完成長年心願。

吳正男自2003年起擔任日本李登輝之友會理事長達22年,直到2025年底才因年事已高卸任。
