Wooden bullets

The Japanese during WWII used wooden bullets when they began to run low on copper and the US countered by using lead. The wooden bullets would inflict wounds that would cause great pain and suffering ending death from infections from slivers that were left in the body. The lead bullets used by the US would mutilate the body and the Japanese complained to the Geneva Convention about the lead bullets, the US agreed to stop using lead if they would stop using wood.
