The ‘Sun’ at War

[4 bound volumes, published October 1943, April 1944, December 1944, and October 1945] (SaW)

We have all four volumes.
Note: Every name in The ‘Sun’ at War has been cross-checked and entered into our People page. However, the contents of these volumes, perhaps due to wartime pressure, are not very reliable. Many names are misspelled, and, not infrequently, a surname alone appears in the magazine. Where we are uncertain, we have indicated alternative spellings, alternative initials, even alternative departments, in parentheses with a question mark.
