Camp Changi was located on the eastern tip of Singapore Island. It was surrounded by a ring of jungle, beyond which you could see the blue-green sea.

It was a camp where about eight thousand prisoners of war lived together. Here were mostly British and Americans, plus a few New Zealanders and Canadians, all from troops who had taken part in the Eastern War Campaign. They were guarded by Japanese and Korean soldiers, and the camp itself was partially self-governed, right down to its own military police.

Yet the people were terribly ragged and hungry all the time. They were constantly tormented by mosquitoes and the terrible equatorial heat, which did not subside even at night. But eventually all this had to end - it was 1945 and the war was coming to an end.
