BLACK AND WHITE VERSION Note: A Full Color Version is also available on Amazon at http: //tinyurl.com/koreapowcolor _________________________________________________________________________________ "After returning from Korea, I started a family and immersed myself in school. Nevertheless, a day seldom passed without something triggering a flashback to Korea - if only briefly. This book is intended to chronicle life as a POW, from the initial appalling conditions and near total neglect by the Chinese, to the almost surreal final year when conditions somewhat resembled a boy scout camp." - Lloyd Roberts (the author) As the military situation worsened in Korea due to the entry of the Chinese in the winter of '50/'51, thousands of men were called up. Having spent prior time in the service, the author was recalled and sent directly to Korea. He joined the US Army 2nd Infantry Division to replace the hundreds killed and wounded in two previous actions at Kunuri and Hoengsong. The author saw light action from March through April as the Chinese were pushed back, giving ground in preparation for their big Spring offensive in late April and May. The 2nd Division bore the brunt of the attack which culminated in the so-called 'May Massacre' below the Soyong River where two battalions were surrounded with heavy losses in men and equipment. Several hundred men were captured along with the author. This began a 27 month journey which is chronicled in this book. In the beginning the POWs were intermingled with the Chinese and subjected to the same artillery, bombing, strafing and napalm as our Air Force pummeled the Chinese. This book is intended to depict the life of the POWs as the author experienced it. The initial conditions that first year were appalling, with high death rates and rampant disease and filth. With the start of the peace talks, conditions improved until the last year when the food was plentiful and almost no one was sick. The dramatic changes in the food and living conditions reflected the Chinese agenda to use the POWs as pawns in the Cold War. The POWs were constantly subjected to attempts at brainwashing and more subtle intimidation to support their policies in Korea. In the end, the Chinese failed at achieving their goals but at least the POW's lives improved.

Simcoe is a town in Southwestern Ontario located near Lake Erie at the junction of Highways 3 and 24, south of Brantford. From Hamilton take Highway 6 to Simcoe.Simcoe was founded in 1795 by Lieutenant-Governor John Graves Simcoe. He gave a grant to Aaron Culver, one of the earliest settlers, with the condition that he was to build mills. In 1801 he built a saw mill and a few years later added a grist mill. The combined operation known as Union Mill was instrumental in the development of Simcoe. By 1812 a hamlet had grown up around the mills. The mills were burnt and the adjacent houses looted by U.S. troops in 1814. In 1819-23, Culver laid out a village which he called Simcoe. The mill was rebuilt by Duncan Campbell around 1825. By the 1870s, Nathan Ford operated a large flour mill, grain elevator and distillery on this site. The last water-powered mill on this site ceased operations in 1928.The book includes a few pictures taken in Colborne, Ontario.

Benevolence Replenished- We replenish our bank accounts, bellies, most of us our children, but what about those who have given you spiritually. The individuals who sow into our needs through prayer and supplication need to be replenished. There are some who may not even replenish themselves spiritually. This book allows you to P.U.S.H for yourself and others. There are scriptures that we need to speak to the mountains and make them remove themselves from our lives. Pray Until Something Happens!

John Corbit acquired land in the area in 1829 and is one of the earliest settlers. Spring Brook (also called Mill Creek), a tributary of the Credit River, provided water for power for several mills located downstream. Seneca Ketchum and George Grigg arrived soon after. By 1844 when Orange Lawrence and his wife Sarah arrived from Connecticut, a well-established community called Grigg's Mill existed beside Mill Creek.Orange Lawrence helped to develop the community, laying out the southeast part of town; he opened a general store and a tavern, built a second mill, founded the first school, and became the village's first postmaster in 1847. He left a strong mark on the community which took the appropriate name of Orangeville.Immigrants from Ireland and other parts of the British Isles and Canada West came throughout the 1840s and 1850s with some establishing successful mixed farms while others settled in the village and became the landowners, merchants, and tradesmen whose needs led to the development of good transportation routes. By the 1860s it was increasingly difficult to deliver and receive goods to and from the supply centres in the south with gravel roads that were difficult to traverse by horse and wagon for much of the year. Winter was the season when most goods were transported by sleigh over frozen roads.By 1871 two daily stage lines were operating between Orangeville and Brampton, and that year the Toronto, Grey and Bruce Railway reached Orangeville, thanks to the efforts of the town fathers such as Jesse Ketchum Jr., Samuel and Robert McKitrick, Johnston Lindsey, Thomas Jull, John Foley, and R. William Armstrong.By 1875 there was a foundry, three planning mills, two saw mills, a tannery, a carding mill, several carriage and wagon manufacturers, and a successful pottery business in operation, along with four grocers, three hardware merchants, two drugstores, three watchmakers, three bakeries, and three establishment proving boots and shoes.It was the foresight of Orange Lawrence and Jesse Ketchum that had large sections of land on either side of the main street laid out for both commercial and residential building lots. The south side followed Mill creek while a regular grid pattern was determined for the streets on the north side from first to Fifty Streets both east and west and north to Fifth Avenue, with a wide main street called Broadway. This 30-metre (100-foot) avenue was not typical of Ontario towns of the time but has proven to be very valuable over the years. In 1875 the Town Hall was construction, and in 1887 the first telephone exchange was established.Orangeville is proud of its roots and seeks to preserve its heritage. With two of our children and five grandchildren living in Orangeville, we often make the trek to the town. I have walked and driven the streets of Orangeville discovering its beauty. There are hundreds of old buildings which have retained their 1800s architectural styles and character. The pictures are divided into four books with colour photos. The first book covers the beginnings of Orangeville with colour pictures from the south side of town. The second book covers buildings on Broadway. Two more books will follow. An appendix is included to describe architectural styles and terms which are referred to throughout the book. The second book covers buildings to the north of the town, as well as pictures taken in surrounding villages of Laurel, Caledon Village and Mono Centre.

Clay Berkeley, one of the Navy's youngest master chiefs, is a staunch bachelor who yearns for sea duty while serving as a recruiting supervisor in West Virginia. Clay despises the pressure imposed on recruiters to obtain goal. His skepticism of mandated recruiting techniques and struggles to shield his sailors ignite battles with his commodore and chief recruiter. Having reached the desired pinnacle of his career, he fears little, except marriage. Clay is marginally satisfied with his lot despite situations that would cause most leaders to don sackcloth and ashes and gnash teeth, or check into a locked room with soft, pink walls. His life is made interesting by a couple of foes; drinking buddies with whom to exchange sea stories; an abundance of women; an oversexed English bulldog and a peculiar Persian cat. Clay's world is drastically altered when he gives an interview to a college paper edited by a shy, much younger woman of old fashioned values. What she does to Clay's lifestyle and lady friends during their sail to formation steaming -- and the sly, intelligent means by which she does it --would generate whoops of laughter in a chief master-at-arms with thirty years of naval service.

Let me start by saying, I was excited to write this book because it involves the tactics and techniques that I and my friends use to catch flounder. I try to keep the information as simple and practical as possible so anyone can understand and use it when they go fishing. I asked some very knowledgeable captains if they would share what they do to catch these fish consistently and share their tips inside the book with you in no nonsense, practical way. As a bonus, (because I want you to be successful at catching fish) I added some video links so you can see the techniques I describe in action and learn that they work. For instance, have you ever caught a flounder in under a minute? There is a video link where I show you how I did this using the techniques outlined in this book. I call it "The 1 minute flounder". In this video clip, (which is the first video clip I ever filmed by myself) I describe what I am doing before I cast out my line. Watch the clip and count the seconds from when the bait hits the water to when I hold the fish and you may be just as amazed as I was when filming the video. And while you are there click the subscribe button and it will inform you when new information is posted. It's free. Here is a tip, the links work best in the eBook format, you just click on the link and it takes you there, and the eBook format is available on many different reading devices. I have a downloaded copy on my smart phone and it works the way I had envisioned. Now in this book, I cover the basic tackle and equipment that I like to use because it works very well for the inshore fish that we are after. And yes, I have included a video link that shows you what I look for in the baits and lures that work for me so that you will know what to look for in baits and lures that can work for you. Now manufactures are bringing out new baits and lures all the time, which is part of the reason we spend so much time in the fishing section of our favorite stores... To see what is new and buy what we think will work. This is a section I am considering developing for the Flounder Bytes website so you can keep up on the latest developments in the fishing industry.
