Series edited and produced by Alan Burgess
Last December a Bristol freighter aircraft crashed in the Cameron Highlands of Malaya after a supply-dropping operation. Twelve days later a search and rescue patrol came upon a dirty, haggard young man of nineteen, four miles from the crash. ' Have we had Christmas yet? ' was the first question this young soldier put to his rescuers. He was Driver Thomas Lee of the Royal Army Service Corps-the sole survivor of the gallant Servicemen who had set out on this particular supply drop. This programme tells the story of Driver Lee's battle to remain alive in the Malayan jungle.
