Stalag 65
 | (A Prisoner of Two Armies)
The amazing story of a South Korean student drafted by the press gangs of North Korea's 'Peoples Army' into their
'Peoples' "Volunteer Army". Deserting the North Koreans, he was taken captive by South Korea.
He then spent two years of living hell in a struggle to stay alive in POW cages dominated by North Korean and Chinese communists. The red POWs revolt at Geoje-do (Koje) island and its inept handling is covered in detail.
His comments in reference to U.S. adherence of Geneva Convention Protocols give pause should the U.S. ever again be involved in an Asiatic war.
There are lessons here to be learned by American soldiers and heeded by American military command.
Edited by Arthur Wilson, a Korean War Veteran
