Tracing POWs
Were any of your relatives prisoners of war of the Japanese during World War 2? They may have filled out a Prisoner of War Card, many of which are available online. A number of these are available through subscription website Find My Past, and for Australian POWs the cards are available free through the National Archives of Australia.
A new find for me is a wonderful Dutch website which translates many of the Japanese symbols used on the cards, helping you trace where your relative was imprisoned.
