    <body><![CDATA[This book probably deserves a higher rating as it is well written. Yet it was only given three stars because for some reason this book just didn't work for me. I kept having to put it down and read something else for awhile. I've read many thrillers and books on Vietnam so the brutality and canabali...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/55637672">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[When I read synopsis for this book, I assumed that the &quot;nine American airmen shot down in the Pacific&quot; would be an inspirational story of survival with this group of men bushwhacking their way though the jungle hiding from the Japs.  That's what I get for assuming.  I was just reading a pi...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/36743779">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Bradley uses the stories of six U.S. airmen lost over Chichi Jima island, near Japan, during World War II to frame a wide-ranging discussion of atrocities during the Pacific War in general. He makes a sincere effort to present a &quot;balanced&quot; picture of the mistreatment of prisoners and nonco...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/25921964">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[The Flyboys were an elite bunch of young men just barely out of their pubescent years thrown into war when the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941. Movies and books, to date, have glorified their existence, making them out as just barely less than Gods.

    <body><![CDATA[I wasn't sure I wanted to finish this book because it started to make me hate, but the more I read the more it made me think. I then realized that racists, military leaders, govenments, polititians and terrorists use the same tactics so that they can train their people to hate so they are willing to...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/23765865">more...</a>]]></body>
