Over nearly six years of captivity in both Hoa Lo Prison (*The Hanoi Hilton*) and Cu Loc Prison (*The Zoo*), Dramesi became known for his fierce resistance, strict adherence to the POW Code of Conduct, and multiple escape attempts. His first escape, in April 1967, ended in recapture and severe beatings. His second, more famous attempt in May 1969 and was recaptured and endured 38 days of brutal treatment.
