A Talk by Brian Williams, Author of The Forgotten Squadron
Thursday 7th May 2026

Join us for an illuminating evening with historian and author Brian Williams, whose acclaimed work The Forgotten Squadron has helped bring long‑overlooked stories of Far East Prisoners of War to wider public understanding.

In this special talk, Brian will explore the challenges, breakthroughs, and human stories uncovered through years of research into the experiences of FEPOWs. From tracing individual service journeys to navigating archives, his work sheds light on the resilience, sacrifice, and enduring legacy of those who served and suffered in the Far East.
