Subject: Looking for info
I am trying to find more details on former P O W who was returned in 1973. Do
you have any info on Col. John S. Finlay??
I am interested in anything related to his years in captivity. I know he was at
the Hanoi Hilton for much of the time. Was he
at any other prisons? With whom did he share a cell, any specifics to his
particular abuse, etc. Really, anything you may
have. I am trying to locate surviving family members or other POWs who may have
had contact with him.
He was my former squadron commander. Please respond to
drjim129@gmial.com.
Thanks,
Dr. Jim Martin
