In memory of fallen heroes of WWII


KOTA KINABALU: When he was 14, Bernie Dorizzie was given a box by his father containing photos of three brave men in army uniforms and a set of medals presented to them for their heroic deeds in World War II.

The pictures were that of Bernie’s uncles - Tom, Gordon and Herbert - who were among the more than 2,400 prisoners of war (POWs) who died in the infamous Sandakan-Ranau death march in 1945.
