Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Vietnam POWs came home heroes, but twenty years earlier their predecessors returned from Korea to shame and suspicion. In the Korean War American prisoners were used in propaganda twice, first during the conflict, then at home. While in Chinese custody in North Korea, they were pressured to praise their treatment and criticize the war. When they came back, the Department of the Army and cooperative pundits said too many were weaklings who did not resist communistindoctrination or "brainwashing." Ex-prisoners were featured in a publicity campaign scolding the nation to raise tougher sons for the Cold War. This propaganda was based on feverish exaggerations thatignored the convoluted circumstances POWs were put in, which decisions in Washington helped create. The Korean War became a prolonged struggle over POWs, as Name, Rank, and Serial Number details. The United Nations Command compelled prisoners to defect and the communists used captive GIs in propaganda denouncing capitalism. At home, ex-POWs were used in propaganda again when the Army chastised the nation for raising effeminate sons unable to withstand captivity.
