Please FReepmail me if you come across a "Joe Keller"..he was a civilian, captured at Wake who survived the war.
I ran across him in the early 1970's in Los Angeles, when he was the 'short haul' driver for a local trucker who frequented my warehouse.....he hated the Nippers with a vengeance.
He was a quite old guy then, of course....mostly ran the in-city van.
Sorry I don't have any personal names. It is sort of a mystery as to where the Japanese sent them (the civilians) and what happened to all of them. Glad to hear one survived.
