My father was in Borneo towards the end of the war, obviously not here as a pow, but he wouldn't talk about it, I regret now not asking him and seeing if he would open up a little about it.
I still have a Japanese flag that he brought back. The only thing he told us was that when the troop carrier left port in Australia, he was the first one to throw up over the side.
