Tap Code

Tap Code recounts the gripping true story of Air Force pilot Captain Carlyle "Smitty" Harris, who, after being shot down in Vietnam, endured eight years as a POW in the notorious Hoa Lo prison. Amidst torture and confinement, Smitty devised a covert communication system known as the Tap Code, which provided hope and unity among fellow prisoners. The narrative is enriched by the perspective of his wife, Louise, who navigated the challenges of raising their children alone while advocating for her family. Together, their experiences epitomize resilience, love, and the unbreakable human spirit in the face of adversity.
