Many of the Royal Artillery 77 Heavy Anti Aircraft (Welsh) were from the Rhondda Valley including my Great Uncle--Sergeant Cyril Bevan of Pentre Rhondda- he was captured when Java fell to the Japanese in 1942. He died at Raha, Moena. "The Worst of them all", according to Prof. Leslie J Audus ( a survivor of Raha).
