Naemanson BS: Still in Guam FGS! (16) RE: BS: Still in Guam FGS! 06 Feb 25


BTW, Charley, I've been listening to Dan Snow's History Hit podcast. I have learned a lot. The Last one i listened to was about Britain's missing sailors. During WWII Britain relied on convoys from North America to provide food and other supplies. We all know the toll the German U-boats took on those convoys. What I didn't know was a large percentage of the sailors in those convoys were Chinese, recruited from China by the Blue Funnel Line out of Liverpool. They lived in Britain, were raising families there, and once the war was over they were deported, many leaving their families behind with no chance to say goodbye. Link is below.
