I had the privilege of knowing Millard and Bea. Grateful for his sharing of this journey and life experience. Brutal as it was poignant moments and a life well lived.

Couldn't put it down. It was so good it actually interferred with work. Very eyeopening to the way the Japenese treated their POWs.

This is the journey of one man who escaped from the Bataan Death March hid in the hills and finally gave up and turned himself in after locals were being tortured and murdered in the Japanese effort to find him.

It tells the details of his survival of the Japanese POW Camps and his final release after the war.
