I fought in the Second World War, but on 12 June 1940 I was taken POW and served five years in captivity. In those years we were treated worse than cattle. We were starved and abused by the Germans. The words of the Geneva Convention did not exist in their minds. I still have nightmares of the experiences that I endured.
