Hardback. Condition: New. The book tells the story of a little known artillery regiment, the 155th (Lanarkshire Yeomanry) Field Regiment, RA which saw constant action during the ill-fated Malayan Campaign of 1941/42 and whose members later experienced the worst kind of hell as POWs of a cruel and bestial enemy. Following the Japanese invasion of Malaya, the Regiment fought a brave and resolute rearguard action all the way down the Malayan Peninsular and onto the so called impregnable fortress of Singapore.

More men of the Regiment died as POWs than fell in action. They should not be forgotten.

A Roll of Honour provides the date, place and cause of death and place of burial/commemoration of the Regiment's casualties.
