Fair enough, that would affect a maximum of 5%, those actually captured by US
Troops.
Many of the Bounty Hunters high tailed it after collecting the bounty, rather
difficult to call as either a defence or prosecution witness.

But not very much since 95% were just "handed over", so cannot have
any "highly classified" component with regard to American Personnel. The
Nuremberg Trials were open to press and public. The Administration may feel
embarrased that after 5 years they have no more evidence than they were
wearing a casio watch, but their blushes should not be spared because that
info is declared as "classified".
