Richard Corbett

Royal Canadian Air Force

My father, Richard Corbett was a POW in Rangoon. He served in the Royal Canadian Air Force and was one of the few Canadians in the Prison in Rangoon. I recall him saying that it was his idea to paint Extract Digit on the building. His story is published in a book called, "Testaments of Honour"

As of September 2009, he is still much alive, although a stroke has left him memory impaired and in failing health.
