An American prisoner of war who was invited to accompany U.S. President Barack Obama on his visit to Hiroshima has had his invitation canceled, according to a POW group that set up the visit.
The American Defenders of Bataan and Corregidor Memorial Society said Wednesday that the White House canceled the visit with former U.S. Army Sgt. Daniel Crowley, 94, without giving a reason.
"I think it was ludicrous to reach out to me and then not include me," Crowley said in a statement.
