• We can use the following steps to identify and explain which statement is false: ✍️
• Read each statement carefully and compare it with the information given in the chapter. 🧐

1. B) Sadao was sent to fight in the World War.

This statement is false because Sadao was not sent to fight in the World War. He was a doctor who stayed in Japan and worked as a professor and a surgeon. The chapter says: “He had not gone to war because he was a surgeon and he had been trained in America” (Buck 1).
