Comments: The true story of 15 Australian soldiers, who didn’t surrender to the Japanese in the Malayan Peninsula 1942. They made made their way back to Australia, through starvation, illness and hardship. When they arrived back in Australia, instead of being called heroes, they were called deserters. Hence the name ” Malayan Harriers”. Only a small number of these men were still alive, (at time of publication), this is their story.
