Send us a Text Message.

United States Navy Admiral Stockdale was shot down over North Vietnam and had to endure excruciating torture at the hands of captors for over seven and a half years while confined at the Hanoi Hilton during the Vietnam War. He was awarded the US Medal of Honor, and I am honored to tell you his story.
