Barbara Anslow:

[In late 1941] I had an unserious boyfriend - Band Sergeant Arthur Alsey, of the Royal Scots.

Arthur survived the sinking of the Lisbon Maru, and the subsequent years as a POW in Japan.

A poem, written about Arthur has been discovered and the family of the poet want to get it to Arthur's family. Please can you help us?

Thank you

Hi Margaret,

Unfortunately I don't have any contact with the family. I saw you post on the Stanley Camp discussion list today. I suggest you ask there, in case Barbara or another subscriber knows.

Regards, David
