Red Prison Riot: UN Guards Kill 87 As POW's Riot on Island. "Die-hard Communists imprisoned on Ponggam Island riot - charge the fence, and force United Nations guards to fire. Eighty-seven are killed, many wounded before the disorder is quelled. The latest Red propaganda blow at the U.S." Asian (Korean?) prisoners of war (POWs) walk through the prison camp, carrying stuff. View through barbed wire of the prisoners marching around camp. VS after the riots were over: wounded POWs help one another along; UN guards watch them; prisoners sit in orderly rows, covering their heads for some reason. (The VO is very anti-Communist and some of the narrator's descriptions of the prisoners are dehumanizing.)
