Yes, it’s a stretch since they weren’t specifically a combat unit, but they DID see combat nonetheless. They were a Japanese all-girls school who acted as a nursing unit on Okinawa, you could easily make an event squad out of them because surely 5 or so students and/or teachers taking up arms against the US out of about 240 wouldn’t be too farfetched, would it?
Weren’t most of them like 15-17? Like teens?
I don’t know how they could realistically be added past as a medical squad, Plus as far as I know about them they were given nades irl.
The vast majority most likely, but there were 18 teachers.
They’d make a decent event or premium medic squad.
I could see an event squad or medical squad, But the issue is what weapons would they even get?
As said as far as I am aware they were given Nades which means they more or less probably blew themsleves up to not be captured.
Given that there’s really not a lot of submachine guns to implement at this point, there’s always the myriad Arisakas you could use. 7mm Mexican contract M1913(type 38s but in 7mm with mexican crests) that didn’t get delivered, concentric circle Type 99s or 38s, leftover Type 35 or 30s, military rifles that got repurposed for school use, Hanyang/Gewehr 88s put into Arisaka stocks and turned into training rifles, Mosins turned into Arisaka trainers, etc. Could even give them a Type 13, 18, or 22 Murata.
Alot of those could be super cool to see in game and would make this squad more unqiue.
waifu squad
Please touch grass.
Nambu Type 2 SMG in 6.5x30mm
Prison is just a place…
Should be TT as an AR equivalent. The cartridge has similar performance to .30 Carbine.
Moved to mess room, huh? Suggestion denied I guess. Sad!
Logically it wouldn’t be a smart thing due to well… historically a sad event.
" Female students between the ages of 15 and 19 worked as nurses known as Himeyuri, or the Lily Corps."

Which came first the chicken or the egg?
Nonsense
They were mobilised civilians who had no good battle training as normal soldiers.
And the most important thing was, they were japanese civilians.
Not all island pacific islands had population let alone japanese ones.
Japanese didnt use malenesian natives in guadalcanal and other solomon island battles since they didnt trust them.
Even in islands like saipan which has been a territory of the empire before ww2, they didnt give weapons to populous.
Most of them were natives or korean labourers and japanese didnt trust them for racist policies at the time.
Why would have japanese military sent underage and undertrained highschool girls to some distant pacific islands for christ sake ?
Or
You just want to cover your waifu fantasy by a historical event as an execuse ?
I dont even want to imagine that bunch of japanese shrewds shouting “nyaaa” while charging to american lines at guadalcanal
listen, if the slavs get female medics then so can the japanese
