On March 29, 1973, the last US combat troops left South Vietnam following the release of the last US POWs from the infamous Hỏa Lò Prison, nicknamed the “Hanoi Hilton.” Earlier in the war, the prison held Air Force pilot James Shipley, who was shot down in 1967. He spent six years in the Hanoi
prison camps, where he endured brutal torture. Yet somehow he found hope and became determined to help his fellow POWs survive. His stepdaughter, Amy Hawk, joins us with a riveting portrayal of life as an American POW on the other side of the world.
