Page Turners Chapter 157: George J. Matta Jr

Cam and TC talk with George J. Matta Jr. This memoir tells the story of SFC George J Matta Sr.’s 802 days in captivity in five POW camps in North Korea. Since his release in 1953, he was determined to write the account of what he and his fellow POWs endured. But like so many young men during the Great Depression, he left school to help his family. With barely a 6th-grade education, George Sr felt he did not have the skills to accomplish his lifelong wish—a memoir.
