    HI everyone

    can ayone help me find out about a man who was held by the Japanese in ww2.

    His name was Vernon Roberts of the R.A.F. he was my great uncle.
    He survived the war but suffered terribly with a highly distended stomache and he also had no finger nails.

    He died a few years ago and i would like to know perhaps which P.O.W. camp he was at or any info that could be dug out.

    also he was an officer which should make it easier.

    Thanks, Donnie
