CODE NAME: HIGH POCKETS, by Edna Bautista Binkowski, a native of Bataan Province, is one of the most thoroughly researched accounts about the activities of the guerilla movement in her province and the role of Claire Phillips, the recognized American Mata Hari of Philippines WWII scenario who supported the underground movement there and elsewhere. Edna's interviews of characters who played a role in that period of history, including my own, will serve to clarify many of the myths that have prevailed for the last sixty years. This book portrays endurance, loyalty and sacrifice by the heroic men and women who formed underground movements to continue resistance against the Japanese and thereby were vital in supporting the allied war effort. Their activities were essential to the successful liberation of the Prisoner of War Camps and the saving of many prisoners' lives. This book highlights not only the courage and heroism of Claire Phillips but than unbelievable loyalty and love of the Filipino people of America, Freedom, and Democracy. -Lieutenant Colonel Edwin Price Ramsey, A U S (Ret)
