Thank you for this post, NormsRevenge.

Thanks for the ping, SAMWolf.

"The man was a giant," Russell said from his home in Eureka, Calif. "Being the focal point between the Koreans and the crew, he took the brunt of everything. No matter who did what, he was always punished. I simply don't know where he got the strength and courage to go through what he did."

"I had people come to me and say on so many occasions that

they never really appreciated how great it was to be an American

until they had the misfortune to have been captured and stuck in

a country that is completely devoid of humanity and truthfulness."
