YES!!! I am 26 years old and read everything I can get my hands on about the Vietnam War. (Police Action, Yeah Right!) Please forgive me if I am incorrect in any of these details, but I think I have the general idea. If not, please correct me! Here goes:
Jane Fonda was invited to Hanoi for a tour because of her extreme left leaning(read uncoordinated bank to you aviation types) political views. While at the infamous "Hanoi Hilton", she was given opportunity to perform an inspection of the American prisoners. As she shook their hands, each man slipped her a scrap of paper with his social security number on it. She then gave the slips to the prison director, resulting in vicious reprisals, and I believe, at least one death. She then returned to the U.S. (I do not say Home!) to spread her lies about the superb treatment our guys were receiving! I say that she should be brought to trial, convicted of Grand Treason, and publicly hanged. And no, Garandman, although I have deep feelings of anger and betrayal, I do not say these things for "revenge." I believe that such action is necessary to assure justice, to help assuage the pain of our heroic combat vets, and to reinstill confidence in today's troops that we, America, will never again leave them to rot in the jungles of tyranny!
P.S. I am, as I said, 26. I have a wife and three beautiful daughters. I am preparing to join the Army soon. I look forward to serving my country, and trust that I will honor you who have so faithfully given me my freedom. God bless you, and GOD BLESS AMERICA!!!!!!!
