Ho Weng Toh died January 2024 aged 103. May he - and the many others who fought for our freedoms - rest in peace.

I'd always considered myself reasonably well educated in WW2 history. This is the first time I've ever heard of Singaporeans fighting in Europe. Thank you for spreading the word of their efforts. Well done!!

Wow. A Singaporean Allied pilot. Amazing History.

How wonderful that you were able to research and make this video.

thank you so much for bringing us this video. I myself have next to no knowledge of Singapore's contribution to WW2 and I'm glad to be less ignorant of it now.

In the sky's above the isle. Aces in exile prevale. Fighter pilots from Singapore 🇸🇬 in the Battle of Britain 🇬🇧 guarding the sky's of the isle.

Always. The Polish exiles were good pilots too. Exiles seem to the great fighter pilots.

None of them who lived through those times will be forgotten - not while I'm alive. Spread the word, to the young.

Great documentary. Thanks.

Good to retell their stories but it is extremely harsh to say they are forgotten. All over the country there are memorials that commemorate those who came from all over the empire to defend the World from Fascism. There names are there for all to see next to our own.

But as an American I would never be aware of these memorials

Seems fascists are back worldwide. Seems the world really have forgotten about all of it. You are a rare exception, people this days have learnt anything.

I am humbled by these giants and the many others who stood tall and endured so much to bring about the end to true evil . As long as i live they will nerver be forgotten ! 🇦🇺

Interesting documentary

Nice documentary

"Dedicated to those who served on distant battlefields" is a bit underwhelming; how about "fought for all our freedoms"?

They never forgotten

They were treated like garbage after the war. Many them were disappeared by the government deported back to where they came from in some cases the families they had in the UK didn't even know what happened to them.

@@nauticalstar8363 It’s particularly timely reminder; given his recent abhorrent behavior

FASCINATING! My father was German and fought the Nazis in the British Army. It took all kinds of good people to fight the evil.

It's a great 👍🏻 attitude of ( time line) channel that appreciates and relives legacy and sacrifices of one of the foreign warriors.he fought Nazism regime in the sky during WW2. For British favorite. His country was invaded by Japanese in the Far East ..

respect less we forget.

British imperial history researched around the world is always condemning itself .. according to humanitarian prospectives

There were NO “Singaporeans” then. They were Malayans. The term “Singaporean” only came after Singapura broke away from the Malayan Federation in 1965.

I think Senator Tom Cotton would still ask these guys if they were affiliated with the CCP...

U boats

According to Google those Singaporeans were black

Please shorten this video to 15 minutes or less! Video too long; did not watch!

ok
