In this 11-part series, Marine Corps Staff Sergeant Frank Cius shares his remarkable story of survival, spending more that five and a half years as a prisoner of war in North Vietnam.
In Part 5, Frank recounts his initial days in captivity, being fed beef stew and spending the night in a cave while under fire from B-52 bombers. Told they would be held as prisoners of war, Dexter and Frank began their journey to Hanoi on foot along the Ho Chi Minh Trail.
