Description
Four unidentified Officers in their quarters at Roberts Hospital, part of Changi Prisoner of War (POW) camp. An Australian chaplain is seated on the left, wearing the black striped epaulettes of the chaplaincy. One of them is reclining on a stretcher bed and there is a hammock in the background. This image was secretly taken by Major John Rosson and the camera and negatives were kept hidden from the Japanese throughout his internment.
