Hi Alex, thanks for creating this interesting blog post! I see that you mentioned one Mr Andrew Zane here. I am trying to trace more info about him for something that I am working on. I think he was in Hawaii after the war. Do you know anyone who might be in touch with him or his descendants/friends by any chance? Have a nice day! Cheers, Vanessa.
