This gripping memoir tells the story of William 'Ed' Dyess, a young American pilot who was shot down over the Philippines during World War II. After managing to escape from a Japanese prison camp, Dyess went on to play a key role in the liberation of the Philippines, eventually earning the rank of lieutenant colonel. He was tragically killed in a plane crash shortly after the war ended. The Dyess Story is a powerful testament to one man's courage and perseverance in the face of incredible adversity.
