My grandfather was an internee of the Japanese in Hong Kong.

He was in the HK Police and was wounded by Japanese artillery when on ARP duties (I was lucky enough to stand on the same spot where he was wounded on my last trip to HK).

He was lucky he ended up in Stanley Camp rather than a POW camp such as Sham Shui Po.
