When Andrew Carson joined the United States Army in 1941, he was
promised good food, travel, a supply of clothing, a place to sleep,
and thirty dollars a month. Within seven weeks, Private Carson was
shipped to the Philippines - with no boot camp, no training, not
one minute of close order drill. Captured by the Japanese less than
one year later, the young soldier endured the hardships of the
Cabanatuan prison camps, nearly died from dysentery, and then was
put aboard a Japanese hellship bound for Japan. There, he worked in
the Fukuoa coal mines, a virtual slave laborer until Japan
surrendered. This is the harrowing tale of one man's survival, and
how he came through the ordeal with dignity and respect for his
fellow soldiers.
