Ernest Gordon
Ernest Gordon (31 May 1916 – 16 January 2002) was the former Presbyterian dean of the chapel at Princeton University. A native of Greenock, Scotland, and the son of James Gordon and Sarah R MacMillan, as an officer in the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders, Gordon spent three years in a Japanese prisoner of war (POW) camp during the Second World War. He chronicled his experiences on the Death Railway in his book ''Through the Valley of the Kwai''. The book served as an inspiration to the film ''To End All Wars'', where he was portrayed by actor Ciarán McMenamin. The film opened in 2001, and the film's DVD release, which came out after his death, dedicated the film to his memory. Provided by Wikipedia-
