Hmmmm?  That makes me wonder.  I know the US tried to recover as many US bodies as possible for reburial in the US.  But I wonder if Japan did anything like that for their dead.

All the island we invaded became a mass Japanese grave.

Not modeling related, but thought it could be of some interest here. Sorry if it has been posted before.
