Retired U.S. Army 1st Sgt. Ray Frasier reflects on his time as a prisoner of war during the Korean War at Davis-Monthan Air Force Base, Ariz., Aug. 28, 2015. Frasier joined the Army when he was 16 years old and had to lie about his age just to get in. After serving for two years as a medical noncommissioned officer, he was captured in South Korea by Chinese soldiers. He spent 865 days, five hours and 15 minutes as a POW in North Korea. Once liberated, Frasier continued to serve in the Army and retired after 22 years of service. (U.S. Air Force photo illustration by Senior Airman Cheyenne A.
