This riveting World War II escape story was published in 1943. On May 6, 1942, hours after US Army General Jonathan Wainwright surrendered all US and Filipino forces on the island of Corregidor in Manila Bay to the Imperial Japanese Army, 18 US Navy sailors from USS Quail set out on their adventurous escape to freedom. Led by Lieutenant Commander John Morrill, the 18 sailors began their 2000-mile journey to Darwin in Australia in a 36-foot gasoline boat. The narrative provides amazing detail of the people and places they encountered on the journey to freedom.

As I was interested in the accounts of the fall of the island fortress , this book definitely helped me to understand. The narrator especially stood out. With a comfortable pace and emphatic expressions that highlighted my experience

Great survival story of ww2. Fascinating.
