About Hiroshi Shima
- Baron Hiroshi Oshima (?? ?, Oshima Hiroshi, April 19, 1886 – June 6, 1975) was a general in the Imperial Japanese Army, Japanese ambassador to Germany before and during World War II and (unwittingly) a major source of communications intelligence for the Allies.
- His role was perhaps best summed up by General George C.
- Marshall, who identified Oshima as "our main basis of information regarding Hitler's intentions in Europe".
- After World War II, he was convicted of war crimes and sentenced to life imprisonment, but he was paroled in 1955.
