We also intend to return, next October after attending a wedding in
peninsula Malaysia. When are you thinking of going?
Great that your father-in-law could make it. I can imagine how much the
trip meant to him. My father was one of the very few 2/3 Machine gunners
to escape capture in Java and years on the Burma Railway. Although he wasn't
captured many of his mates were, and he never got over it.
