aristeides, do you have any opinion about the firing by American troops on the Japanese ships which carried American (ex?)prisoners, I believe, around the time after the Bataan Death March, so therefore, after all what these men had gone through, they were killed by American "friendly" fire?

(I don't know all the details, but, basically....towards the end of the war, American soldiers (hundreds or thousands) were killed by American fire when Japanese ships were bombed, and nobody talks about them too much. There was a thread or a mention on a thread some time ago.)

I hadn't heard about that, but I am open to suggestions on where I can read about it.
