An expose of the \worst act of treason in our history -- the betrayal of American POWs Following World War 11, Korea and Vietnam. The Senate Committee on Foreign Relations issued An Examination of U.S. Policy Toward POWs/MIAs on May 23, 1991. It declared: "World War II was a great military victory for the United States. Despite the total victory in Europe thousands of U.S. soldiers, perhaps as many as 20,000 were never repatriated from Russian prisoner of war camps, prisons and forced labor concentration camps." At least 10,000 American POW/MIAs were known to be held by the North Korean savages after the Korean War ended.. They were shamelessly abandoned. We may never know how many American military men were deliberately left behind in Communist Occupied North Korea by the traitorous elected and unelected officials who run the U.S. government Researcher Cynthia V. Ward charged in August of 1986 . "The evidence grows stronger and stronger that hundreds of Americans are still alive in Communist captivity in Vietnam. And, according to many who have studied this matter most closely, our government knows their location and in some instances their names." There were only 591 POWs repatriated under the auspices of Operation Homecoming during February and March of 1973. The 591 figure represented a miniscule 12 percent of the figure of 5,000 POWs held by the North Vietnamese.
