Harry Albert Greenwood was a ship's officer of the Indo-China Steam Navigation Company (Jardines). 

He appears to have been captured in Hong Kong. He was initially interned at Stanley Camp but later transferred to Shanghai for internment in January 1943. 

Harry Greenwood was repatriated from Shanghai on the Teia Maru/Gripsholm in September 1943 as part of the Canadian group of returnees. After repatriation, he rejoined Jardines in Bombay, India in 1944.
