1 Jan 1945, Chronology of Events Related to Stanley Civilian Internment Camp

Date(s) of events described: 
Mon, 1 Jan 1945

 

Alumni of Stanley camp will always remember 1945 as the year they began to run down, finally, like clocks that have not been wound. Most of them slept a good deal and what weak emotion they felt was of an unpleasant kind.

Note:

This is a novel, but I suspect this gets close to the truth, for some internees at least.
