In conjunction with this year’s 50th Anniversary of the End of the Vietnam War and return of the POWs, today's special guest, retired Air Force pilot Col. Lee Ellis, and love expert Greg Godek, have come together to share the inspiring stories of POWs who returned from the Vietnam War after years of incarceration and mistreatment in the infamous "Hanoi Hilton" prison system. Their book, "Captured by Love," offers readers a rare glimpse into the resilient and enduring love and romance that emerged from such a challenging and heartbreaking situation.

"We wrote this book to not only show that love overcomes all but, to also honor the men and women who sacrifice for our nation," said Retired Air Force pilot Col. Lee Ellis, co-author.

According to Wikipedia, Ellis gained notoriety when, as a fighter pilot in the Vietnam War, he was shot down, captured, and spent 5+1⁄2 years as a prisoner of war in Hanoi and surrounding areas with former presidential candidate and Senator John McCain (R-AZ) and others. His capture occurred on November 7, 1967, and he was released on March 14, 1973. He was one of the youngest, junior members in the camps.

He is an award-winning author, leadership coach, and expert presenter in the areas of leadership, teambuilding, and human performance. His past clients include Fortune 500 senior executives and C-Level leaders in telecommunications, healthcare, military, and other business sectors.
