Ralph MacLean served in the Canadian military in WWII and was stationed in Hong Kong where he was captured on Christmas Day 1941.

He was held as a prisoner of war until he was rescued by American soldiers at the end of the war in August 1945.

"It was a very traumatic and frightening part of my life and remains almost as vivid as when it happened," MacLean said.

To say he'd go through it again is no small thing.
