About 130 miles from Bangkok, 20 miles from the big Camp Tamuan, lies a small Camp Camburry, at the foot of the hills from where the siamese jungle stretches for hunderds of miles inland. This was the starting point of the ill-famed Siam rail-road built on lives of Allied Prisoners of war. The bog road ends in this Camp. About 400 Dutch ex-Prisoners of war, mainly Navy, are camped here, mostly medically fit for light duties only. They are awaitting transfer to the big camps, or to Bangkok.
