"In what was facetiously called 'the Univeristy of the Far East',
the better-educated officers lectured enlisted men in history, 
French, and biology.  Astronomy was the most popular class of all.  
Lying on their backs beneath the Southern Cross, the POWs followed
the course of the stars and planets, bathed themselves in meteor 
showers, and took their minds off this world by contemplating others."

From "Ghost Soldiers", an account of the Cabanatuan POW Camp 
during WWII,by Hampton Sides.
