  1. It's very inetresting to find this blog. I live a few miles from Hinckley, where Dr Stanley was from. In Hinckley Cemetery his name can be found on a family headstone. The inscription says he "...died a cruel death at the hands of the Japanese Military Police". Researching his story I found this blog and was pleased to see he has a headstone.
