One fateful night in Korea, in 1951, Hiroshi "Hershey" Miyamura's position was overrun during a pitched battle with the Chinese Communists. Hershey, a Japanese American and a squad leader, serving with the U. S. Army 3rd Division, ordered his squad back to the safety of friendly lines while he stayed fighting off overwhelming numbers of the enemy alone. He was captured by the Chinese and remained a POW for more than two years in North Korea, surviving the incredible odds stacked against him while in the hands of the enemy.The book recounts his journey from the heart of the battle to freedom through first hand interviews from the man himself, Hiroshi "Hershey" Miyamura, and includes interviews from key family members, newspaper articles, and numerous visuals including one of a kind family photographs and memorabilia.
