by William Shadish, M.D., with Lewis H. Carlson

Published by: New York iUniverse Press, 2007

Korean War combat physician and POW William Shadish administered heroic and extraordinary care to his fellow soldiers on the battlefields and in the temporary and permanent North Korean prison camps, where conditions were so horrific that more than half of the American captives died that first winter of 1950-1.

Dr. Shadish continued to support his men after liberation, when he and his fellow survivors had to endure the very real effects of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, as well as unwarranted, and eventually unsubstantiated, accusations of mass collaboration and brainwashing.

Submitted by Lewis H. Carlson, author of Remembered Prisoners of a Forgotten War: An Oral History of Korean War POWs.
