Let me tell you about Hsinchu? I was an "Army Brat". At one point in 1959 my father as a senior Captain was ordered to be an "advisor" to the Chinese army and we sailed to Tiawan, and then on to where he was stationed at the army post at Hsinchu. Hsinchu in the late 1950's and early 1960's was a rather rural area. Every farmer grew rice using water buffalo, had a shallow 1/4 acre fish pond, and a small home made soy sauce cooker. For sanitation each dirt road had a ditch on each side to be used as a public toilet. I still remember the smell of the place. Surrounded by low mountains, we as 8 yr old kids would climb them, using the dirt roads mostly. There were few paved roads beyond Taipei at that time. We boys would always explore the old WWII caves the IJN had dug to hide her AAA and other war material from air raids. We lived in a former Japanese "fort". It was a real fort. It had one metal gate, with an armed guard 24x7. Our "compound" had 10 foot concrete and adobe walls, topped with shards of broken green glass. There were blockhouses on each corner of the oddly shaped "compound", with .30 browning machine guns mounted in each tower. But those caves were our prime motive for slipping out of the compound to go exploring. The scars from WWII were very real, and recent, to me as a child. My father joined the army the day after he graduated HS as an E-1. 34 years later, and three wars, he retired as a Colonel. Between the low, marshy rice fields and those mountains, Hsinchu would have made a difficult place to capture.
