5.0 out of 5 stars
The incredible strength of human will.,
By Cicely Coen (Acworth, GA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Flag: My Story: Kidnapped by Red China (Paperback)
Mr. Kiba spins his incredible story of being shot down in the dead of winter with a group of airmen over North Korea during the Korean War. He was captured along with the other surviving airmen and taken into communist China as a political prisioner. The Chinese believed Stardust 40 invaded their airspace so the prisoners were not afforded the rights of normal POWs. With incredible detail he recalls his 2 1/2 years of starvation, interrogations, cruelty and "re-eduacation" by his chinese captors. He in detail remembers dates, recalls sightings of his co-captives, the trial where he was found to be a war criminal and the groups eventual release long after the war was over. I find his will to survive amazing as he fights to control even the smallest aspects of his life. The story is a true inspiration and is a great reminder that "Freedom is not Free". Kiba continues to fight for the rights of POW's up to this day. It's just sad his story took 50 years before it was printed.
