LOGLINE: Some of the most under-sung heroes are
American ex-Prisoners of War — this series lets them
tell their stories in their own words — enhanced with
photos and stock footage



PREMISE: As of 2005, according to the Department
of Veteran Affairs, just slightly over 26,000 ex-
POWs from World War II were living and, tragically,
that number continues to decline. Still, there are lots
of great guys out there with great stories. American
Prisoners of War: Men of Steel in Cages of Bamboo
and Iron shows you these strongly emotional and
inspirational glimpses into sacrifice for country and
outstanding patriotism.

Producer Ralph Roberts -- a decorated Vietnam combat
veteran himself -- has written almost 100 books for national
publishers and, as a publisher, produced a
1,000 more titles in the last 30 years.
