During a visit to Dongji Island, a descendant of a #LisbonMaru survivor reflected on the site’s “quiet dignity” and the bravery of local Chinese fishermen who rescued British prisoners of war. ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ Standing at the wreath for his grandfather, he said the moment felt deeply personal — “like looking at myself.” ⁣ ⁣ He noted that without the courage of those fishermen and the POWs, “I wouldn’t be here, and neither would many generations of other families.” ⁣ ⁣ #ChinaUK #WWII80 #WitnesstoWar #ForgottenFront #WWII
