Is that book “Never Plan Tomorrow” by Joseph Petak? That’s a very good book, and it has copies of the mission report of that OSS mission written by it’s commander. The prison they liberated was Hoten Camp. It’s where my father spent most of his captivity. He was amoung the original group who were transported on the Tottari Maru, and stayed at Splinter Camp.
I’ll have to look that book up. Sounds like a good read. I’ll ping you to the book I’m re-reading tonight when I get home. I cant remember the authors name and the title is War in the Pacific or the Pacific War. It was written by a retired Marine/historian who my mother met in Hawaii back in 2002. She got me a copy because of my intrest in history. I had a grandfather in both theaters during the war. One was one of Murrell’s Murauders and the other was a nose gunner in a B-24 Liberator in Europe.
