Japanese Hell Ships with Jenny Chan
Episode 112
Tuesday, 21 April, 2026
Hell Ships is the name given to prisoner of war transport ships used by the Empire of Japan during World War 2. These ships were truly nightmarish. Thousands of POWs were crammed shoulder to shoulder in the holds of these ships, in brutal heat, unsanitary conditions, with rancid water, limited food, and no room to lie down. These ships were also unmarked, and were often targeted by Allied planes, ships, and submarines. Rich and guest Jenny Chan discuss Hell Ships and other atrocities during the war in the Pacific. Rich is joined by Jenny Chan, who is the co-founder of Pacific Atrocities Education. Learn more at pacificatrocities.org. This episode was written, edited, and produced by Rich Napolitano.
