NOTES

Eighty-two American flyers were imprisoned in Koncentration Lager Buchenwald. Hitler had set their execution date. But at the end of World War II, an American congressional committee toured Buchenwald and denied any Americans had been imprisoned there. Those records have been sealed for seventy-five years. This book tells about the life, beliefs, and emotions of one of those American pilots and his French Resistance rescuers who were betrayed by a Gestapo collaborator. The military and prison life of 2nd Lt. J. D. Coffman is documented
