In the "The American Soldier in WWII" by Chester G. Hearn, I read:

" A rifleman shot one who had been sniping into a perimeter. Standard operating procedure called for a body search to identify the enemy's unit. When going through a fallen enemy's shirt,the soldier's hand ran across a pair of breasts. There is no record of the number of women serving as Japanese snipers,but there was at least one on Guadacanal."

Has anyone else heard of this? I wonder ,if it is true,how the Japanese males would have thought of it? With Japanese society being so male dominated and orientated.
