'ADMIRAL' BROWN CAPTURED
Youngest Prisoner of War
AT school they called Leslie McDermott Brown the "Ad- miral." To go to sea was his great ambition, and at fifteen he was a cadet in the Glasgow liner Kemmendine.
She vanished on a voyage from Cape Town to Rangoon last August. Now "Admiral" Brown is known to be a captive of the Nazis the youngest British prisoner of war in Germany.
His mother overjoyed that he is alive, has taken from a wardrobe the warm coat he used to wear on thei bridge.
She has hung it proudly on the side of the dining-room mantelpiece In her home.
Recently she got a postcard from him from a German prison camp.
"When Leslie left on wint was the last voyage of the Kemmending, he knew he was going to a hot climate."
Spid Mrs Brown,
"So he left behind all his heavy clothes, Including his bridge coat, of
which he was very proud.
Her Thank-offering. "At nights, when I listened to
the German broadcasts and I did
not hear my boy's name mentioned among the prisoners of war, I some
times felt depressed.
"I took out his bridge coal and
wept over it,"
As a thank-offering for the safety of her son Mrs Brown has given £5 to the Red Cross.
