Bio:
"Days Not Forgotten", a memoir of Barwick "Bob"
Barfield's days as a POW in Germany, told by his wife Marilee Barfield.
This book is about 60 pages. Marilee includes in this book explanations
important to a reader. She has included newspaper and other publications
as well as a wealth of historical data, pictures, official orders, POW
magazine, Luftwaffe interrogation forms, the terrible telegram from
General Ulio, and other letters. Most important are the details from
Barwick's memory, which include being shot down on his 13th mission, the
marches he participated in as well as the pain and hunger that he
endured.
