L/Sgt. Leslie Collett
British Army 560th Field Coy. Royal Engineers
from:Smethwick
Leslie Collett was my grandad. He served with the 560th Field Coy, Royal Engineers in Singapore where he was captured and spent the war as a PoW. All I know is that he was certainly at Changi jail. He was one of the lucky ones that came home. He weighed I believe 6 stone and never spoke much about it. He died when I was young so I never got to talk to him about it but my mom said he never spoke at all about his experiences
