5.0 out of 5 stars Lessons from an Everyman's Hero, March 30, 2004

This review is from: Unchained Eagle: From Prisoner of War to Prisoner of Christ (Hardcover)

Robert Certain's biographical sketch is more than the story of one Vietnam POW who survived his ordeal with strength, honor and integrity. It is truly the story of one man wrestling with his call to serve, first as a Navigator over targets in Vietnam and then over flocks of Christians seeking God through the Church. Fr. Certain's tale cuts to the core of what it means to serve and serve faithfully. Beyond the loyalty to his oath as an officer Certain presents a compelling story of his loyalty to his devoted wife who stands by him during his time in the Hanoi Hilton and then, how his faith in God made him give himself over to Christ.
For those who knew the times and appreciated what our Veterans did for their nation it is a compelling tale. For those born after the Vietnam War Robert Certain's book will help you capture the times and trials of this troubled period through the eyes of one who lived it vividly. Every veteran can share in his fears, hopes, joys, adventures and ultimate victory over his captors. Every Christian can find their own path to redemption by accompanying Fr. Certain on his journey from Prisoner of War to Prisoner of Christ.

I just fishished reading this book. I really enjoyed it. I must say, the title was very fitting. This author has certainly led an interesting life. He is quite the man to overcome all of those obstacles along the way. He illustrates that The Lord does move in mysterious ways.
