POW record in Japanese
« on: Tuesday 14 October 08 11:04 BST (UK) »
I have a POW record card of an ancestor who died working on the Burma Railway. There are about 5 lines of Japanese in the "Other Information" section. Could anyone translate it for me?

If you are willing to have a go pls send me your email address in a private messsage  & I'll send you the JPG file

Many thanks

Hi Graham
you may like to  try posting to http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Fepow-Community/
While I research FEPOW history I'm not too hot at the japanese translations.

If you are happy to give some more details about your relative I do have a database of British deaths along the railway and I'd be happy to look him up for you.

You can pm me if you'd prefer to do it privately.

Regards
Jean
