Just finished this. The letter is heartbreaking because he could have taken leave in Sept. Instead he saved it up for Christmas. Six days after this letter he failed to return from a patrol. He was 29.

It was an honour to take 820 squadron around Changi Chapel and Museum today. It is on deployment with U.K. Carrier Strike Group currently in Singapore. An impressive group of men and women.

Today, another Changi Museum guide and I attended the dawn Anzac Day service. Always moving and very personal for us because we’re honouring some who never even made it to Changi POW camp.

Reading this at the moment. Published in 1995 but still potent. It’s heart-warming to read of the joy and relief she feels when her POW son writes from Germany. Heart-breaking when you contrast that with what the families of the FE POWs must have felt, let alone the POWs themselves.

Hi, been meaning to switch over to Bluesky for ages. I'm a writer, WW2 history buff (SE Asia theatre), author, museum guide and paddler. I live in Singapore with my family and I'll mainly be posting on history related subjects or articles. Nice to be here.
