This is one
of two War Cemeteries of 8,732 allied Prisoners. We walked
around and looked at their names, age etc. Some of them
are very young like that one in the right picture, he
was just 18 years old.

JEATH War Museum,
inside the museum there are pictures from the war. This
museum was built like a prisoners' hut and where the pictures
are, that's where prisoners slept.
