5.0 out of 5 stars A Hero's Hero, May 29, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Code of honor (Hardcover)

I worked around Col.Dramesi, while I was stationed at Plattsburgh AFB, New York. I was fortunate enough to get an autographed copy of his book when it was first released. He was a living legend at Plattsburgh, and people were truly in awe of him. Thank you, Colonel Dramesi, for serving your country so honorably!

5.0 out of 5 stars Inspiring story of persistence and courage, May 23, 1999

This review is from: Code of Honor (Paperback)

This is a well-written story of Col. Dramesi's two attempts to escape from a North Vietnamese POW camp, detailing the planning and execution. No other book I've read puts a person inside the mind of a POW as effectively. Col. Dramesi was my reporting official (supervisor's supervisor) at Plattsburgh AFB, NY, and his quiet manner belied the two Air Force Crosses represented in his ribbons, which he earned for these escape attempts. A very interesting man, and a fascinating book.

One of the most incredible books I have ever read. I had the honor of meeting Col. Dramesi at age 14 in Mt. Home AFB, Idaho. He and my father Col. David Reiner worked together flying F-111's. He has been and always will be an inspiration in my life. I have read this book countless times and over the years did countless book reports in school. Col. Dramesi is a hero's hero!
