Suggested host intro:
Prisoners of War tells the story of four American soldiers captured in one of World War II?s bloodiest battles, the Battle of the Bulge.
The four men share stories about their capture and their daily struggle to survive in German prison camps. And they talk about how this distant chapter in their lives continues to haunt them today.
Prisoners of War: A Story of Four American Soldiers, was produced by Erica Heilman and Gregory Sharrow for Vermont Folklife Center Media.

Review of Prisoners of War: A Story of Four American Soldiers
These 4 men have amazing stories and they detail the hell they endured with emotion, clarity and a uniquely human voice. It is one thing to hear someone talk about starvation in a detached manner, quite another to hear someone describe his efforts to stay alive by picking peels off a manure pile.
"Prisoners of War" is well edited and the production values are top shelf. The stories are compelling and important to hear and they don't lose steam as we conclude with them discussing their self-doubt even after living this horror.
As a PD I would have liked to have a 5-minute news hole at the beginning and there is plenty of audio for the creation of a powerful billboard.
I wonder if this would be just as profound with the insertion of narration. The narrator could take us outside the wall of the prison to the scenes happening around the world and within the war zones thus providing context and more perspective. Narration and sound might benefit an already excellent production.
