"KOBE
HOUSE" Osaka #2 American Liberation Roster |
Source: This
list was compiled by Roger Mansell from the original identity cards
completed by each prisoner at time of rescue. A number of men, e.g.,
Marine Robert Newton, were rescued from nearby Japanese civilian
prisons by the Kobe House prisoners. The ID cards contain additional
information not shown herein such as home towns and other comments.
Other men "drifted" into this camp from various areas after the
surrender but, although not an official "resident" of this camp, may be
listed on the roster.
