The Fall of Singapore (in video) - Feb 1942.

 When others have done better research and work than me, I put their works here for those interested.

Here are two videos, on the Fall of Singapore, and the Surrender of Singapore

The Fall of Singapore:

Churchill wanted "no thought of surrender until protracted fighting among the ruins of Singapore City" (at 2:18 of the video), which is kinda callous. And would have taken a horrendous toll on Singapore and the residents.
