Thailand. (Burma - Thai Railway). 1944. Sixth Prisoner of War card from Thailand issued by the Japanese 'Dove and Helmut', a mint card headed 'Service Des Prisonniers de Guerre.'
In November 1944 the men who had stayed behind on the railway has a last chance to write home. Only cards from the Dutch Prisoners in Camp 2. 4 and 7 are known addressed to Java.
