The handsome boy standing up is my uncle, my hero. He was captured by the Japanese early in the war and spent the war in a POW camp.He managed to build a radio receiver in his wooden leg, and could get and spread news to his fellow prisoners, bolstering their morale.My father, a combat veteran in the European theatre described him as " a remarkable man". I never heard him use that term to describe anyone else. Went on to be a Doctor after the war.
