Dad guarded Japanese POW

Comments: Hello, My father is Donald Heaston, he was stationed at the 8th Army Stockade in Japan approx 1948-1952 and guarded Japanese POWs. I would like to find someone who might remember him and get them in contact with each other. We do have a few photos we could share. He remembers Tojo was one of the prisoners the same time he was there. Unfortunately, he doesn't remember exactly which Company he was with. The only name he remembers is Johnny Walters, who was his best man at his wedding. Thanks for taking the time to read this and please contact me if you have some information at: dburd32@yahoo.com God Bless! Doris
