The never-before-revealed true story and final chapter of what really happened to American POWs in Korea, how they survived in the face of unimaginable brutality and "programming" and how so many came to be "broken soldiers."
Raymond B. Lech is an independent scholar and a past national director of the Navy League of the United States. He is the author of All the Drowned Sailors.
"Lech reconstructs the POW experience in Korea and its aftermath,
exposing the brutality of the captors and the inconsistency of US
military justice. He supplies the most comprehensive account to
date of the subject." -- Library Journal
"A well-balanced history of the war that treats the issues fairly
and comprehensively..."--Journal of Contemporary History
"This is a unique and important book, a top-notch investigation
into the POW issue in the Korean War, which had been kept under
wraps. Based largely on materials Lech was able to pry out of the
government using the Secrets Act, Broken Soldiers amounts to a
world scoop on the subject."--David C. Smith, coeditor of American
Women in a World at War: Contemporary Accounts from World War II
