Hi I m returning to this site after a brek of some years and I am till trying to solve my original problem! My father in law, Dominic Michael Stringer, was one of the lucky ones that successfully escaped from Singapore on a msall ship. Today's questions are: Were there lists of those who managed to escape taken by authorities as some books have asserted? Where would these lists be now? Is there a comprehensive list of those who remain "missing" or even a list of deserters? If any of these are available where would I be likely to find them? Thanks for any suggestions.
I don't know if there are lists, but it might be worthwhile looking through the stories at the BBC: The People's War http://www.bbc.co.uk/history/ww2peopleswar/categories/c55167/
