Hi all I'm looking for more info on the Japanese Hakabusan Maru transporting the 3rd Bn, 4th Imperial Guards Regt with supporting units, leaving Phu Quoc island on the 6th December 1941, arriving in Bangkok on the 8th, as the advance party of the Imperial Guards Division. My sources are Thailand Invasion Group, Malaya Invasion Group, Southern Force, 08.12.1941 and HyperWar: Japanese Monograph No. 45--History of Imperial GHQ--Army Section, page 61. I know the Hakabusan Maru was in service in August 1931, thanks to The Vancouver Sun from Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada
Hi OpanaPointer, thank you for this link, but its Hakusan Maru, not Hakabusan, which is what I'm after..
