Operation Rolling Thunder & The Hanoi Hilton: A Pilot's Story

Experience Operation Rolling Thunder, the massive Vietnam War air campaign, in this restored historical documentary that includes the incredible true story of a downed U.S. pilot. Follow the harrowing journey of U.S. Air Force Captain Wayne Waddell, from the cockpit of his F-105 Thunderchief to his capture and years of survival as a prisoner of war. Operation Rolling Thunder was a gradual and sustained aerial bombardment campaign conducted by the U.S. 2nd Air Division (later Seventh Air Force), U.S. Navy, and Republic of Vietnam Air Force (VNAF) against the Democratic Republic of Vietnam (North Vietnam). The operation began on March 2, 1965, and officially concluded on November 2, 1968. Its primary objectives were to pressure North Vietnam to cease its support for the Viet Cong insurgency in the South, to destroy North Vietnam's transportation system and industrial base, and to halt the flow of men and materiel into South Vietnam. Despite dropping more bombs than were used in the entirety of World War II against Germany, the campaign is widely considered a strategic failure as it did not achieve its political goals.
