Softcover. Zustand: AS NEW COPY. AUSTRALIAN MILITARY World War II -It is August 1945 and World War 2 is over. Japan has surrendered. As the Western world rejoices, deep in the jungles of British North Borneo the small number of remaining Australian and British prisoners of war are massacred. Of the 2434 prisoners incarcerated by… the Japanese at the Sandakan POW camp, only six, all escapees have survived. The POWâs sent from Singapore in 1942-43 to work on airfield construction, endured frequent beatings, and were subjected to other, more diabolical punishment. Sustained only by an inadequate and ever diminishing rice ration and with little medical attention, many died of malnutrition, maltreatment and disease. In 1945, in response to an order from the Japanese High Command that no prisoners were to survive the war, those still able to walk were sent on a series of death marches into the interior. Anyone unable to keep up was ruthlessly murdered. Those left behind were systematically starved to death, or massacred. In late 1944, the Allied, aware that POWâs were being eliminated, had evolved a plan for their rescue - a rescue which, after months of bungling, was finally cancelled in April 1945, in the erroneous belief that the camp had b been evacuated. Gross incompetence and faulty intelligence were to blame for the failed rescue attempt. When it was realized that mistakes and stupidity were responsible for the deaths of hundreds of men, those at the highest level shifted the blame to others, before embarking upon a policy of willful and deliberate suppression. Lynette Silver, through painstaking research and interviews with survivors, as well as a study of Japanese records, has pieced together a detailed and highly readable account of the lives and ultimate fate of Sandakanâs POWâs. She tells a totally gripping and horrifying tale, not only of the prisoners, but the reasons why they, and their story, became World War 2âs most deadly secret. 528 p., [18] pages of plates : ill., maps, ports. ; 26 cm. #060226 ch. 1 Last Hope, Last Bastion ch. 2 Selarang ch. 3 To Sandakan ch. 4 White Coolies ch. 5 Living Dangerously ch. 6 Comings and Goings ch. 7 Disaster ch. 8 Japanese Justice ch. 9 `For The Duration' ch. 10 A Plan Evolves ch. 11 To Ranau ch. 12 `Annihilate Them All' ch. 13 `As The Situation Dictates' ch. 14 And Then There Were Six ch. 15 `And Not Leave Any Traces'? ch. 16 `A Most Regrettable Business'.
