Yes many of the soldiers had no education and we're very impressed by watches. I saw one soldier that had broken watches all up his arm.

I never regretted leaving North Korea but I never saw my parents again. I don't know what happened to them.

My favourite memories from growing up are of just hanging out with my friends and talking. My worst memories are from during the Korean War. I was captured by North Korean soldiers when they were invading the south. I was staying with a local teacher when I was captured. He actually knew some of my captors and was able to negotiate my release. I was lucky as I would likely have been executed.

Family is the most important thing in life. I have a wonderful wife and successful children as well as many grand children that are all close to me. I am very fortunate.
