普克战俘营纪念碑  (Chinese Simplified)

Picture
这座纪念碑是为了纪念1943年4月至1944年4月期间被关押在普克战俘营的250名日军战俘,他们参与了通往特戈拉矿场的道路修复工作。他们隶属于1000名战俘组成的战俘营,其中包括500名英国战俘和500名澳大利亚“E部队”战俘。他们从新加坡樟宜战俘营被转移到巴都林当。他们乘坐“地狱之船”德克勒克号前往古晋,并于1943年4月1日抵达。

这250名战俘于1943年4月9日抵达普克战俘营。他们接管了达汉橡胶园工人(主要是爪哇人)腾出的住所。这座纪念碑对面至今仍保留着一座爪哇人公墓。

普克战俘营的设立目的是在战俘们修建通往特戈拉矿场的道路期间安置他们。日军认为,他们可以在那里开采朱砂矿石来制造水银。后来,日军意识到矿石供应不足,而且在太平洋战争中节节败退,于是放弃了这座战俘营。

战俘们在普克劳作期间,只有一人死亡,即马来联邦志愿军的二等兵道格拉斯·威克特。战后,他的遗体被挖出,重新安葬在纳闽岛战争公墓。此外,包括海峡殖民地志愿军的二等兵伦纳德·海盖特和莱斯特郡军团的二等兵亚瑟·贝茨在内的一些战俘也因病被送回巴都林当接受治疗。

战俘营于1944年4月10日关闭,其余战俘在皇家陆军医疗队上尉CF·坎贝尔的指挥下,被送回古晋的巴都林当。

1944年8月,包括坎贝尔上尉在内的200名前普克战俘被转移到纳闽,后来又转移到文莱和美里。这些人后来都因病去世,或被日军在纳闽、文莱和美里杀害。在普克工作的250名战俘中,只有留在古晋的希盖特二等兵和贝茨二等兵在战争中幸存下来。
