Sergeant Sam Walker knew that the war was ending, and he didn't want to die in this hole of a prisoner of war camp in Texas. But he knew that he was in much better shape than his best friend who was leaning against his back for support. Joe was a Texan who had been fighting alongside him for all of the seemingly unending war, and now was close to death in his native state.Joe knew he was never going to walk out those gates and taste his mother's pecan pie again and asked his friend from Iowa to go to his home and make sure that his wife and the baby girl he had never seen were all right. Sam told him he'd make it out of the camp and return to his wife and daughter, but they both knew differently, so he promised that he would, and Joe knew that Sam would keep his promise.After Joe slipped away, Sam vowed that no matter how long it took, he'd fulfill the promise he'd made to his best friend and his brother in arms.
