Re: 800 Sqn Hellcats Aegean 1944 friendly fire incident

Now found one of the emails. Regarding my pow enquiries, I received the following:-

"A thought from WW2 of the 57,000 British Military PoWS of the Japanese 17,000 died in captivity nobody mentions that 8,500 of these were courtesy of the US Navy who torpedoed the ships carrying them from SE Asia to Japan."
