Years ago I read “When Hell Was In Session”, retired Navy Admiral Jeremiah Denton’s account of his seven and a half year residency at the Hanoi Hilton and other prisons maintained by the North Vietnamese for captured American air crew members.  As a Navy Captain, he was often the ranking officer.  Aside from being one of the prisoners held longest by the North Vietnamese, Admiral Denton also achieved a measure of fame when he blinked his eyes during a propaganda interview to spell out, in Morse Code, the word “TORTURE”.

There are many remembrances of him in the media today, but THIS one actually contains video of the Admiral blinking the code.
