ATTENTION
ALLIED PRISONERS
Allied P.O.W. and Civilian Internees, these are your orders and/or instructions in case there is a capitulation of the Japanese Forces: -
- You are to remain in your camp area until you receive further instructions from this headquarters.
- Law and order will be maintained in the camp area.
- In case of a Japanese surrender there will be Allied occupational forces sent into your camp to care for your needs and eventual evacuation to your homes. You must help by remaining in the area in which we now know you are located.
- Camp leaders are charged with these responsibilities.
- The end is near. Do not be disheartened. We are thinking of you. Plans are under way to assist you at the earliest possible moment.
