A sensational autobiography of a preteen Korean boy who survived his country being taken over by Communists, the destruction of home and family, his liberation and adoption as company mascot by the Americans who saved him. This story is a testament of the basic human will to survive in war and an overdue tribute to the American servicemen who served in the Korean War.
