Prisoners of War

Two fascinating pieces about POWs and detainees have recently been published. "Out of a Tortured Past," by Matt Soergel in the Florida Times-Union, is a moving account of how American prisoners survived their mistreatment in the Hanoi Hilton. "A Day in a Guantanamo Detainee's Life," by Carol J. Williams in the Los Angeles Times, is a straightforward report on the daily grind in Gitmo. Each story is a fine piece of journalism, and it's interesting to compare them. If you would like to share your thoughts, please click on the "comments" button below.
