I think he was captured, but I am unsure of the circumstances. When he returned to New Zealand after the war, he recieved several letters, written in Japanese. He never had them translated, & my brother & I have always wondered about these letters, & what they may have contained. I do not know if his family still have the letters, but I would love to know.<br>He died quite young, & his widow has begun to lose her memory, so we are not quite sure how we could find out about the letters, & if they still exist.meggiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00061112627819270427noreply@blogger.com
