Just finished "Unbreakable" the story of Louis Zamperini who was a B24 bombardier in the Pacific. After being a top track and field athlete at USC and in the 36 Olympics in Berlin. He crashed in the Pacific, spent over a month in a raft, was captured by the Japs and spent months being starved, beaten and humiliated by his captors. He was in a camp when the bob a were dropped and his description of how the Japs reacted was very interesting.

For anyone interested in WWII I recommend the book highly. These were remarkable men with incredible stories the likes of which we will never see again.
