This section contains Second-Hand biographies of veterans, written by friends and relatives. Such stories may contain valueable details about aspects of camp life that may not be heard otherwise, and it is in this spirit that this section has been created. It must be pointed out, however, that second-hand accounts may not always be reliable and should, as such, be treated with caution. If you knew someone who was in a Prisoner of War camp and they left you with vivid memories of that time, if you want their stories to appear here then please get in touch (pegasusarchive@googlemail.com).
