Filmmaker David Taylor will share excerpts from his documentary, “Spies in the Hanoi Hilton,” which reveals how American POWs secretly communicated with the CIA and Naval Intelligence using a system of coding that dated back to Marshall's work in WWII. This clandestine capability resulted in a daring rescue mission that remained classified for the next 45 years. The conversation will also touch on the heroism of U.S. Navy vice admiral and aviator James Bond Stockdale, the most senior naval officer to be held captive in Hanoi. |
