Book - 2015
Flight technician Frank Williams and Judy, a purebred pointer, met in a World War II internment camp in the Pacific. Fiercely loyal, Judy had a keen sense for friend and foe, and the pair's relationship deepened throughout their captivity. Judy risked her life to intervene when the prisoners were beaten, and her survival became a beacon of hope for all the men. World War II's only official canine POW, Judy lived the rest of her life with Frank.
