BEYOND THE CALL The True Story of One World War II Pilot’s Covert Mission to Rescue POWs on the Eastern Front Lee Trimble with Jeremy Dronfield Near the end of World War II, thousands of Allied ex-POWs were abandoned to wander the war-torn Eastern Front. With no food, shelter, or supplies, they were an army of dying men. The Soviets viewed POWs as cowards, regarded all refugees as potential spies or partisans, and refused all U.S. offers to help. So an undercover rescue mission was launched, headed by veteran 8th Air Force bomber pilot Captain Robert M. Trimble. This is the compelling, inspiring true story of an American hero who put his life on the line to bring his fellow soldiers home to safety and freedom.
