My greatgranddad was in Burma within the Liverpool Royal Kings regiment. He did not speak of it to my grandmother. I've always had an interest in finding out more of what he saw/went through.

Incredible how Pathe had access to these camps to film at the time! I would love to read more about how the service gained access to filming these important events. Could the channel post any notes they have to accompany the footage or are these old cans found with no extra info??

PEPSI MAN 😳 Reason 1: armies are composed of men. Reason 2: those men had families. Reason 3: relatives survived to have children themselves. Thank you.

Someone said it on another video but these silent films need a new commentary make explaining what it's showing and why it wasn't used.

Wikipedia "Burma Railway" has a skeleton of the facts on this subject. A quick skim (by me) showed 180,000 deaths of the prisoners building it.
