comment from 122.57.155.175 regarding section The Makin Raid incident
(This reference does not mention such an order from Tokyo. I am not saying that there was not an order. But I would like an accurate reference to it. This reference refers to a murderous change of heart by Abe and tends to blame him for this massacre. However a similar massacre of 17 New Zealand coast-watchers and 5 civilians at Tarawa the previous day (15th October 1942) tends to suggest the possibility of an order from Tokyo.)

The Makin Raid incident section
"At a loss of 30 men, the US Marines killed the 85 - 160 Japanese" - according to the article Raid on Makin Island, those are the estimates by the American commander (claiming to have seen 85 bodies and estimated total Japanese loss of 160, but according to same Wikipedia page the real Japanese loss was 46 killed. Does anyone disagree to changing to that number to keep pages in sync? Sijambo (talk) 20:25, 13 January 2020 (UTC)
