I agree, maybe we could put it in one of the ads the FReepers are doing. I went to YAhoo search and looked up Camil. Some very interesting reading. His mind was changed when he joined the Young Socialist after he came back from Vietnam. Another thing I have been throwing around in Vietnam Veterans Against the War and Anti-Imperialist. Go to their website and then go to their links, very interesting reading. This should be advertised also.

That might be one of the ways Camil is telling his story now. But the truth is much more pathetic.

When Camil was in VN and when he came back he had no problems with the war. He went to college in Gainesville on the GI bill. While there he heard Jane Fonda was going to speak. He had never seen a movie star in person before, so he went to see her.

By the time she was done speaking, Camil said he realized he was a war criminal. He went up to her afterwords and told her about being a vet. She paid for his transportation and lodgings and expenses to go to the (infamously bogus) Winter Soldier Investigation.

Camil paid her back by giving a show-stopping (and bogus) account of the atrocities he had committed and seen (much like Bangert's fantasies). This was the account, almost word for word that Kerry later parroted to the Senate committe in April 1971.
