Om avsnittet

On the night of January 30th, 1968, the Tet Offensive reached the city of Hue. AFVN deejay John Bagwell was one of nine men who spent the next five days in a house, waiting for a rescue that never came. When they were finally overrun by the NVA, three of them didn't survive it. Five spent the next five years as prisoners of war. John Bagwell got out alone, shot through the foot. The Army had reported him dead but “the Scrawny thing” from Oklahoma was crawling through rice paddies determined to make it back.
