The Escape of the 2nd MTB Flotilla

A/B: Leslie S Barker [LR3 C/SSX21699][MTB 11](Hucknall Notts)

1920 - 2002

Les kept a detailed diary during the escape which his family kindly gave me a copy as well as photos to compliment this site.

Les Barker's grandson Russell Joyce retraced the journey right up to the Burma border in the spring of 2008.

Russ posted a daily blog which can be accessed here.
