Code Burgundy - The Long Escape

by John Katsaros, Christian Miller (Editor)

Rescued by the French Underground after being gravely wounded when shot

down over Frankfurt, Germany in March 1944, a young American patriot literally

crawls and climbs his way across the European battlefields, risking his life to

send strategic target Information to Britain. Heroism and survival instincts work

together to show how the stark horror of World War II as experienced by a 20 year

old U.S. Army Air Force Sergeant can be ennobled by the unconditional charity and

bravery of men and women fighting to be free in occupied France.
Over sixty years has not diminished the graphic nightmare of human

mutilation in war games that seem primitive in our electronic age. The sense of

history and the will to win freedom shine in this personal recollection of

individuals on both sides of the conflict. This story reminds us that real people

alive today battled for their right to live and for ours.
