Customer Reviews

Excellent, moving, interesting, firstperson story

Sgt. Gautier was given some unusual assignments while a prisoner of the Japanese, and he was fortunate to have survived the Death March, prison camp and the voyage to Japan. He gives a gripping account of his experiences, and also provides us insight into the lives of the PoWs after their returned to the States.This is a good book. Anyone interested in learning what it was like to be a prisoner of war under the Japanese will find it intriguing.

How true that this books is and how real it was.

This book was one that out of all of the books about the Death March of Bataan, was the most vived.This man came to my school and old us how real that this war that most people just talk about, was so real! This man went through so much and survived it and then went through it again, just to tell people about it. I think that it was a very honorable thing to do.
