I remember growing up and reading a Christian comic-book version of one of the flyer's stories that was shot down in Vietnam.
I vividly remember the part that showed them forcing a pen in his face while his arms were pinned behind his back on an oxbow saying "Sign or die".
Kerry has never publicly held himself accountable for his actions after coming home.
He can talk about private meetings where people have "come to terms" all he wants but there has never been a public vetting of the personal harm that his words and the Fullbright committee caused to the lives of these men.

This is so true. When I was active in the POW/MIA issue many years ago is when kerry's name popped up on my radar screen. Moreover, I was an assoc. member of the VVA at the time and I received their mag. "The Veteran". What I noticed in the mag. it was so far to the left. Everytime I would read it I would become angry. That's when I started doing some research to find out who these people were on the Nationial level. That's when I found out about their connection to the vvaw. Once I learned that...I quit the VVA and joined the group VVnW (Veterans of the Vietnam War). I was extremely active back then with the POW/MIA issue, but I had to stop because I was so involved in the issue I couldn't even sleep. It just broke my heart as it does to this day. We kept hitting so many brick walls it just breaks your heart knowing we left them behind and the likes of john kerry and his group was a huge part of it.
