Thank you for your most interesting observations on
this.
What did the Chinese do with their prisoners? Did they
hold them in North Korea under their own control, or did they turn them over
to the North Koreans? I doubt that they would have openly held them in
China, as that would have compromised the ostensibly unofficial "volunteer"
nature of their participation in the war.
