WOW ! What an inspiration! After being shot down and captured, Captain Coffee was held captive for seven years in Vietnamese prisons. The torment he endured, physically and mentally was crippling. Sleeping in a cold cell on a concrete floor with only the clothes he was captured in for comfort, it is a miracle how he found the strength to go on! The worst part for me was the rats, which definitely would have finished me off assuming I would have survived that long, but that’s nothing! Coffee goes on making good use of his idle time. He is a strong individual that has earned a place in my heart and mind and his story will never be forgotten. This book is a testament to the strength that can be harnessed from within even when you’re broken. Thank God for the men and women just like Coffee who gave their lives in this awful war, I have gained a high level of appreciation from reading this book. My own problems seem so small now. much respect!
