'Isrecko Dimitriyevich has escaped twice. The first time, in 1957, he was sent back as under age and put back in prison. When he was released he escaped again and joined his mother and brother in the San Antonio Camp, Naples. Isrecko's father was a musician killed in the war. He himself works tirelessly, believing that one day he will get to the United States to continue his training.'
