Abstract An extremely important characteristic of the modern Japanese military's “comfort women” 慰安婦 system was its extreme secrecy. It was realized through a high degree of tacit “cooperation” between the Japanese military and government. This “cooperation” was mainly manifested in “special treatment” in various areas such as simplified exit procedures adopted by the government for the recruiters and recruited “comfort women” during the Japanese military's recruitment of “comfort women.” Its extreme secrecy was mainly manifested as documents on “comfort women” between the Japanese military and government all having various levels of classification, and the extreme secrecy of the management of “comfort women” affairs, and their being cut off from the external world. “Comfort women” were even killed to cover up the crimes. Owing to the extreme secrecy, many truths about the Japanese military's “comfort women” problem are still concealed today.

日军“慰安妇”制度的极端保密

摘要近代日本军队“慰安妇”制度的一个极为重要的特征是其极端的保密性。它是通过日本军方与政府之间高度默契的“合作”来实现的。这种“合作”主要表现在各个领域的“特殊待遇”，例如政府为招募人员采取的简化退出程序，以及在日军招募“慰安妇”期间招募“慰安妇”。它的极端机密主要表现为日本军方和政府之间的“慰安妇”文件都有不同的分类级别，以及“慰安妇”事务管理的极端机密性以及与外界隔绝。“慰安妇”甚至被杀以掩盖罪行。
