Episode Description
Do you believe love conquers all? When you hear today's guest, retired Air Force pilot Col. and former POW, Lee Ellis, talk about his book, Captured By Love, you will. As we near the 50th Anniversary of the End of the Vietnam War and return of the POWs, it is particularly poignant to hear these inspiring romance and love stories. POWs who returned from the Vietnam War, after years of incarceration and mistreatment in the infamous "Hanoi Hilton" prison system, you will be amazed at the power of love to provide hope and strength under unimaginable conditions. "Captured by Love," provides a rare glimpse into the resilient and enduring love and romance that emerged from such a challenging and heartbreaking situation. Lee Ellis wrote this book to, not only show that love overcomes all, but to also honor the men and women who sacrifice for our nation. Early in his career, Lee served as an Air Force fighter pilot flying fifty-three combat missions over North Vietnam. In 1967, he was shot down and held as a POW for more than five years in Hanoi and surrounding camps. For his wartime service, he was awarded two Silver Stars, the Legion of Merit, the Bronze Star with Valor device, the Purple Heart, and POW Medal. Lee resumed his Air Force career, serving in leadership roles of increasing responsibility including command of a flying squadron and leadership development organizations before retiring as a colonel.
