Hackworth blames Boorda. Interesting in the perspective that Boorda was proven correct in his belief that he was entitled to wear his Combat V.
Hackworth at his self-serving best.This interview also covers Hackworth's "Ranger" designation, and why he felt entitled to wear it, even though he wasn't a Ranger.
Hypocrite Hack rides again.
Hanitty will be there on Monday to lick Hackworth's faux medals of courage.
Hack needs to go sit down.
Hackworth, new orders. Meds. Now.
Is Hackworth the guy who wrote, "Soldier"?
Hackworth is a hypocrite, he won't say a word about Kerry's medals, or about his testimoney before congress while the POWs were being tortured.
STFU and go sit in the corner!
I loaned Hackworth's autobiography to a Korea war era tanker friend of mine, thinking he might find Hack's Korea story interesting, and he almost threw it at me when he returned it after finishing only the first chapter. Chapter 1 has Hackworth jumping up on top of a moving tank during a firefight, Hackworth pounding on the hatch, the commander opening the hatch in response to Hack's knocking, and then Hackworth and the tank commander conversing under machine gun fire. My Sherman/Patton tank commander buddy says all of the foregoing was materially impossible, implausible, and/or stupid. Hack apparently has some explaining of his own to do, if anyone wanted to waste the time to call him out.
Gawd how I detest that guy...(but am grateful for his service--I detest Aaron Burr also, but am grateful for his service as well).
Hackworth's autobiography is entitled "About Face." I thought it was an interesting look at a life spent in the US Army, but to a knowlegable insider it appears to be a less than completely true and accurate story. To my everlasting disgrace I never served in the military and didn't see the obvious B.S.
Burr had least had the decency to die.
"Hackworth is a hypocrite, he won't say a word about Kerry's medals, or about his testimoney before congress while the POWs were being tortured."
I used to enjoy Hacks comment's before I started to dislike them.--> http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=39994
It's always about Hack... isn't it Hack?... One of the most decorated living Americans...if not the most decorated living combat veteran
A self promoter.....sigh...
imo
I think Hack had to stop using that in the last couple of years. It's been made very plain to Hack that the Army does not keep track of "who has the most medals".
THE ARMY DOESN'T KNOW, but I keep forgetting this is about Hack, not the truth.
That would work.
Hackworth is worthless pond scum who brags his own stinking ass up as America's most decorated soldier. (he & Kerry have a lot in common with all this self braggadocio and glorification. Hackworth and his gang of Kerry's drove Boorda, an honorable man to commit suicide.
Now we presently have a much worse example in Kerry who puts a V for valor onto his silver star. What does the Hack do, he attacks the SBVfT for daring expose Kerry, Hackworth's phony hero .
Why doesn't Hackworth do the honorable thing himself, oh, I forgot, he has no honor.
Hackworth has gone AWOL for the election cycle.
