CAPTURED: Shot Down In Vietnam12 Kesä 2023

Chapter 5: The Last Word We Heard

Mike McDaniel was nine years old when his father, Capt. Red McDaniel, was shot down and captured in the jungles of North Vietnam on May 19, 1967. It would be three long years until he and the rest of the clan heard any further news on the status of their patriarch. Meanwhile, Everett hinged his optimism on the dream of an eventual reunion with his wife, whom had promised that she would wait for him forever. This episode focuses in on Red & Everett's communication (or lack thereof) with their loved ones back on US soil. Though their family members were not forced to endure horrific maltreatment at the hands of the North Vietnamese, they were experiencing their own kind of torture, not knowing the condition of their beloved men.
