[NOTE: The material on the following webpages is for historical purposes
only
and is not to be taken as accurate in many cases. The information with
which the US military had to work was limited at the time. What is
striking is the effort put forth to locate these POW camps in an
attempt to find out exactly where our men were and how many there were
in the various camps. For more accurate details on the Japan camps,
please refer to the POW Camp Group History chart. More definitive
information on Korea, China, Taiwan and other Asian camps will be forthcoming -- for a start, see Asia
Pow Camp Group History and Asia Pow Camp
Strengths.
For additional informaton on the efforts to locate POW camps and subsequent
recovery efforts, see this page,

Marine POWs, under heading "Recovery."]
