Captured at the Imjin River: The Korean War Memoirs of a Gloster by David Green

The author, a young conscript, fought with The Glorious Glosters at the legendary Imjin River battle. Heavily outnumbered by the Chinese and subjected to 'human wave' infantry attacks, he and his colleagues suffered the trauma of being over-run. Dave and those who were not killed became POWs having to endure appalling conditions for over two years. This fighting soldier's memoir brings home some most unpalatable truths.
