Singapore — the so-called 'Gibraltar of the East' — fell to Japan on February 15, 1942, in what Churchill called the worst disaster in British military history. Some 85,000 Allied troops surrendered, and thousands of POWs endured brutal captivity. The fall shattered the myth of British imperial invincibility across Asia.
