Who would have thought that young American boys drafted or enlisting in the United States Armed Forces during World War II would end up as POWs and spend the rest of their lives in horrid Russian slave labor camps? Tens of thousands did! Who would have thought that young American boys drafted or enlisting in the United States Armed Forces during the Korean War would end up as POWs and spend the rest of their lives in horrid Korean, Chinese and Russian slave labor camps? Thousands upon thousands did! Who would have ever believed that their government would have deliberately abandoned to their sadistic Communist captors thousands of young American fighting men who had been left behind when the Korean War ended? The United States Government did exactly this! Who would have thought that young American boys drafted or enlisting in the United States Armed Forces during the Vietnam War would end up as POWs and spend the rest of their lives in horrid Vietnamese, Laotian, Chinese and Russian slave labor camps? Thousands more did! Who would have ever believed that officials in their government would blatantly lie by announcing in 1973 and uncountable times since that all American POWs in Vietnam and in other parts of Southeast Asia were dead? Officials throughout the United States Government lied and continue to lie to this very day! They did and are still doing this! The Defense Department did just this! It's an explosive exposé of a series of shameful betrayals: the betrayal of American prisoners of war as World War II wound down to its conclusion; the betrayal of American prisoners of war after the Korean debacle; and the betrayal of American prisoners of war following the spectacularly brazen Washington-engineered Vietnam sellout! Covered are such controversial topics as the carefully orchestrated whitewash concerning the torture, death and abandonment of American fighting men following World War 11. The Korean War. The War in Vietnam. The truth about this incredible prisoner of war cover-up following World War 11. The Korean War. The War in Vietnam. The unbelievable official government lies distortions and intimidation tactics used to hide the truth about American POWs held after World War 11. The Korean War. The War in Vietnam. The never ending denial of the existence of American military men who were so shamelessly abandoned by the leaders of their own country. The shocking manner in which American prisoners of war were knowingly left behind to die of starvation and torture at the hands of their communist captors.
