Midnight in South Vietnam, and the river is black. Past the rice paddies and shacks, small fires are burning by the shoreline as Lt. John H. Davis' 50-foot aluminum swift boat — PCF 19 — makes its routine patrol through the reeds. In a split second, rocket fire shatters the silence, and through a plume of oily smoke, the boat sinks to the river's bottom. "My whole crew lost their lives that night. I was the only one who survived," Lt. Davis says.

LOS ANGELES - The Sinclair Broadcast Group is ordering its TV stations across the country to air a documentary on the eve of the presidential election that attacks Sen. John Kerry's anti-Vietnam War activism, the Los Angeles Times reported Saturday. The one-hour program, "Stolen Honor: Wounds That Never Heal," features former prisoners of war accusing Kerry, a decorated veteran who took up the anti-war cause upon returning from Vietnam, of prolonging the war and worsening their plight. The newspaper said the program is to be followed by a panel discussion to which Kerry will be invited, which could satisfy fairness...

Ok, I've never started a post on my own before, so I hope I did everything right! I just have a question. I'm LIVID after reading the news on AOL this morning. The first thing I clicked was an article about how the Republicans are going to try "suppressing black votes." (Underneath that was a link to a story about Edwards addressing the Black Caucus.) In the sidebar was an advertisement flashing "Dethrone Bush!" and asking for $50 contributions. I got a little nauseated. So to be fair, I clicked a link that said Bush was leading in most polls,...

Open Letter to the Democratic Party To whom it may concern: Be advised that the majority of Veterans and Independent Voters are fed up with your assaults on the Viet Nam Veterans that are exposing your “war hero” When Kerry used his Viet Nam service as his central theme, he seems to have conveniently forgotten the insults he poured on us during the 1971 Senate Hearings. It also seems that he has done everything to keep his “New Soldier” out of the hands of the general public, to include the latest PDF version on a website that is now blocked....

WASHINGTON - Two former Vietnam prisoners of war who appear in ads attacking Democratic presidential candidate John Kerry (news - web sites) were appointed by the Bush administration to a panel advising the Department of Veterans Affairs (news - web sites).

John McCain (news, bio, voting record) to pursue court action against political ads by "shadowy" outside groups, the White House said Thursday amid growing pressure on the president to denounce attacks on John Kerry (news - web sites)'s war record.
