The SS British Free Korps comes to mind made up of troops in German POW camps, but thankfully not many went over. There are others which included Indian troops captured in Singapore who went over to the JIF's. Apparently they treated POW's worse then either the Japanese of Korean guards. One ex POW told me about Ghurka POW's who would walk past a JIF then run his finger across his throat.
