Sakaguchi Shizuo was commissioned an infantry officer in 1910 and commanded the infantry group of the newly raised 56 Division, built around 56 Brigade, when war broke out in the Pacific. The Sakaguchi Detachment subsequently participated in the capture of Davao, Jolo, Tarakan, Balikpapan, and Banjermasin. He was promoted to lieutenant general and command of 55 Depot Division in June 1943. In August 1944, he became commander of 65 Division but was retired in April 1945.

Following the capture of Balikpapan, the entire European population of the town was massacred in retaliation for the demolition of the oil wells. It is unclear whether Sakaguchi was ever brought to account for this atrocity.
