Hansen of the U.S, Army has written a dra- matic story of the "'anti-commu- nist heroes" in his new book, "HEROES BEHIND BARBED WIRE," (D. Van Nostrand Com- Limited). The heroes are the thousands of Chinese and North Korean prisoners of war of the United Nations Command who chose to remain on freedom's side of the Bamboo Curtain after the Korean armistice. This is a fine story of hope for all freedom- loving peoples everywhere; it is also. a unique case book for all who deal with the minds of men, A total of 88,000 of these Chi- nese and North Korean prisoners of war wrote a rare account of their disillusionment while be- hind barbed wire in Korea. Colonel Hansen records their side of the story in a simple and moving style which ph, Write Freedom Story the men and their families. The comedy was in the ingenious methods the prisoners devised to turn the tables on their inter- viewers during ¢ these grotesque propaganda sessions. Only three per cent of the total number of prisoners interviewed chose to return to a life under communist rule, all of which represented a disastrous loss of face for the communists and a sweeping victory for the cause of individual freedom. ACHILLES HEEL Mr. Hanson Baldwin, the dis- tinguished military critic of The New York Times, best summed up the significance of this histor- fc event when he wrote: "Pan- munjom has again revealed the Achilles Heel of any communist or any dictatorial government. Moscow can never be sure of its 'land in public relations for Gen- munjom, can Moscow be sure of the armies of its satellites and friends... . Colonel Hansen is well equip- ped to write such a book. - He was chief of Psychological War- fare for the United Nations Command during the Korean conflict and also directed the prisoner of war program drama- tically described in this book.

Colonel Hansen points out that the prisoners were carefully screened and only those who de- clared they would forcibly resist repatriation were admitted to the non-communist camps. , This is an ecxiting story Colonel Hansen tells how these men found a greater freedom of opportunity behind barbed wire than they had ever been allowed in their own homeland.
