Description

Two unidentified Allied Prisoners of War (POWs) (probably doctors) reading in their quarters in Roberts Hospital, part of Changi POW camp. There are a number of personal items, such as uniforms and a mirror, on the shelves 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.
