Oral History:, B-24 Liberator Memorial Australia Inc.,Return of the Australian POW's 1945
... Australian POW's 1945 ...B-24 Liberator aircraft and their crews were important in the repatriation of thousands of former prisoners of war at the end of the war in the Pacific in 1945.In May 2015 the B-24 Liberator Restoration group organised an exhibition to commemorate the role of B-24 Liberators and their crews in the repatriation of former POWs in 1945 at the end of the Second World War. It was believed that no such exhibition had been organised previously and that the memories of surviving veterans might be lost if no effort were made to record them.This collection includes oral testimonies of 9 surviving veterans who were crew or support staff for Liberators involved in these important missions. It also includes a 7 page summary of the historical context, including statistics of POW numbers, information on Government decisions about repatriation arrangements for South East Asia and the South West Pacific areas, as well as an evaluation of the role of B-24 Liberators in repatriating the former POWs.Approx 25 pp printed on A4 paper in plastic sleeve.Black-and-white illustration of B-24 Liberator at top of front cover.

National Vietnam Veterans Museum (NVVM)Book, Jensen-Stevenson, Monica and Stevenson, William, Kiss The Boys Goodbye: How the United States betrayed its own POW's in Vietnam
... own POW's in Vietnam ...The story began in 1985, when award-winning journalist Monika Jenson-Stenevson came to investigate the case of Bobby Garwood, an ex-marine who escaped from Vietnam in 1979 and claimed to have seen countless Americans still in captivity there. Garwood claimed he had been a prisoner of war, but the American government disagreed - and promptly convicted him of collaboration with the enemy. Kiss the Boys Goodbye reveals a devasting scandal and provides startling evidence that the American government, right up to its highest echelons, knows - and has always known - that American POWs were left behind at the end of the war.The story began in 1985, when award-winning journalist Monika Jenson-Stenevson came to investigate the case of Bobby Garwood, an ex-marine who escaped from Vietnam in 1979 and claimed to have seen countless Americans still in captivity there.
