    Women at comfort stations were forced to render sexual services to many officers and

    men, their human dignity trampled upon. As the war situation deteriorated for Japan, people's
    live generally became even more miserable. The women were forced to follow the military time
    after time, and had no freedom whatsoever. When the Japanese military began retreating from
    one place to another in Southeast Asia, the women were either abandoned or destined to share
    their fate with defeated military. Some perished and others narrowly escaped to be protected
    by the United

    The war ended that time but comfort women who survived could not return home easily. It is
    known that many women gave up the idea of returning to their home out of a feeling of shame
    and remained in a foreign land, staying there for the rest of their days. In many cases, those
    who returned home were suffering from injuries and went through life miserably, unable to
    forget past cruelties. Many suffered from physical disabilities and venereal disease, and were
    unable to bear children. Others could not marry. And those who did eventually marry often had
    to conceal their past, unable to tell others of the pain they felt in their hearts. This would have
    been one of the heaviest burdens to bear. The women have lived for more than half a century
    after the war, suffering practically as much as they did during the several years they spent in
    military comfort stations. For decades, many survivors of comforting women did not want to
    share their stories as their pain like hidden in shame was concealed in the outside world until
    breaking their silence and make this as sensitive issue gained more awareness for many years
    ago.
