[Col. 3]

"... Huxley W. Heitland ..."

If, as the obituary has written, Huxley spent most of his 3-year time in the Armed Forces in Japan in WWII, he may have been a prisioner of war. The only way U.S. military personnel and the military personnel of our allies spent time onthe ground in Japan before the surrender was signed on the Battleship Missouri on 2 Sept. 1945 would have been as a prisioner of the Empire of Japan. If, however, the obituary was refering to the extended Japanese Empire from theAleutian Islands of Alaska, Wake Island, the Dutch East Indies, many South Pacific Islands, Korea, and China, French Indo-China, Malasia, Singapore, Burma, &c. then capture by the Japanese would not be meant. <>
