"My father, C.L. Wood was the CL Woods you have listed as one of the Warrant Officers at Nagoya Camp #7-B. He was with Col. Stubbs throughout most of the war. He was a veteran of six camps. As a Warrant Officer, he was in charge of a portion of the men at this camp. Also the Japanese allowed him to keep a small notebook to help keep track of who was in his charge and take some notes. It consists of about 70 pages, listing names of the men he was responsible for, their number, some details about their duties, and a few misc notes. He mentioned the death, time and date of C.S. Uckerman. I also have copies of two debriefings in which he mentions the American bombing of Toyama.

"I'm also sending a copy of a debriefing done in 1947 and a three-page statement I got that I think was done shortly after he got back. I'll include a pic of an arm band, and wood tag written in Japanese [which say "Leader"]. Also a letter my father received from Yoshiaki Komatsu of Nippon Soda Company. Not sure of his position there. I assume they knew each other from Nagoya 7B.

"Maj Mike Dobervich was one of, I think six POW's that escaped from, again, I think Davao. He and my father were friends. My father probably would have gone out with them, but was flat on his back with beriberi, amoebic dysentery, and malaria. Barely survived. Maj Dobervich came to see my father the night before they went out and gave him his dog tags, which my father carried for the rest of the war and returned them to Dobervich after the war. I have the official Marine photo of him returning them."
