For example, he and two others escaped during the march and hid in the jungle for a couple of weeks. They watched what insects and berries the birds ate. That helped but the malaria and bad water took its toll.<br /><br />When the Japs recaptured the trio, they immediately beat one of them to death. The other two were tied to ropes on the POW ship and dragged in the sea for a day.<br /><br />And the mistreatment didn't stop there.<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-58258347782057318682019-09-06T06:32:05.929-05:002019-09-06T06:32:05.929-05:00Welcome Home Soldier.

His point was that the guy was scarred for life. That’s why the alcoholism was salient to his comment.
