Royal Artillery from:Port Sunlight, Wirral My Granddad, Richard Podmore, often shared stories of his times at war in Singapore as I sat on his knee. He served between 14th of November 1940 and 15th of November 1945. When he was released his papers say exemplary, honest soldier, reliable man, very satisfactory service. He says he was one of the lucky ones as he was a POW in Singapore, he was captured and held in Camp 4 Tamuang, Wangkanai on 15th of February 1942. My grandads health during the war meant he had to have a blood transfusion to keep him alive. He enjoyed a long life after the war, married with 3 daughters.
