DESCRIPTION:
Five Stars Long read, but worth the time.. Remarkable Memoir Judith V. Blackledge This well written amazing story of survival is a "page turner" which relates the traumatic events associated with the Korean War.The author also presents flawed strategies of the war that resulted in needless loss of life among our American soldiers.. John Kocis said Escape from North Korea-A heroe's story. Paul Petredis's saga of his Korean War experience is a gripping story that riveted me to its pages from start to finish. Although I worked alongside Paul at the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department, he never spoke of his nightmarish tale that remained locked inside him for many years. I'm glad that he was finally able to tell his story. It needed to be told and needs to be understood by new generations of Americans. Paul has given me a fresh perspective on the military and political leaders of our country during that "Police Action," as it was dubbed by President Truman. Make no mistake. The action in Korea was a war in all its blood
The incredible true saga of the quintessence of survival: in vivid detail, the ongoing near-death encounters during the author's 14-day escape following capture, from North Korean forces.
