Dear Friend:
Last year, when John Kerry was running for the Presidency, I wrote and produced the documentary, Stolen Honor: Wounds that Never Heal.
I am proud to say I was one of many Vietnam combat veterans who stood up to expose Kerry's betrayal of all those who served in Vietnam -- particularly our POWs still being held by the Communists in 1971. That's when Kerry testified before the U.S. Senate that American troops were murdering hundreds of thousands of Vietnamese civilians, and that such atrocities were authorized and approved by the entire U.S. military chain of command.
The election is long past, but Kerry’s assault on Vietnam combat veterans rages on. I am being sued for millions of dollars by some of his closest friends, and I desperately need your help.
Stolen Honor was the story that America didn’t know and that the media wouldn't tell you, the story Sen. Kerry didn't want you to hear. In fact, he was so alarmed by Stolen Honor that he sent out squads of lawyers to intimidate any TV network that might consider airing the documentary. Kerry's own campaign manager even went on national TV to openly threaten Sinclair Broadcasting with having its license revoked if they showed Stolen Honor.
Despite these efforts to shut it down, Stolen Honor was still seen by millions of Americans who bought the documentary or viewed it on my website. You are one of those Americans who saw the film, and that’s why I've sent you this email.
I will not be silenced or intimidated by Kerry's lawyers. Nor will the POWs and other Vietnam combat veterans.
But I urgently need your help if I am to succeed in fighting this lawsuit.
Defending against these lawsuits will be costly, far beyond my means. But I need to defend myself as aggressively as possible. My honor is at stake -- and the honor of every American who fought in Vietnam.
I'm not alone in this important mission. A number of POWs, Vietnam veterans and other patriots involved in Stolen Honor have set up a non-profit organization -- The Vietnam Veterans Legacy Foundation -- dedicated to debunking Vietnam myths and setting the record straight concerning the true history of the Vietnam War and those who fought there. As part of their mission, the VVLF is also assisting in my legal defense.
I served in Vietnam, a Marine grunt, an infantryman, wounded three times and I never asked to come home, even when my battalion was decimated, forced to "stand down" because of casualties. Those who were able fought on and we’re still fighting today. But, this time the "enemy" wants to take something even more precious than our lives. It wants to strip us of our history, our sacrifice, our dignity and our honor.
We cannot let that happen and with your support it won't.
----------
I am being sued by Kenneth Campbell -- John Kerry's right hand man in the anti-war movement -- because I stood up against him and John Kerry.
In Stolen Honor I included some film footage showing part of the "Winter Soldier Investigation" of 1971. This was a highly publicized event put on by radical leftists who called themselves Vietnam Veterans Against the War -- a group dedicated to America's defeat in Vietnam. The event, financed by Jane Fonda, was supposed to prove by firsthand testimony that Americans were committing vile atrocities in Vietnam.
In the footage a man named Kenneth Campbell is shown apparently coaching another participant about his testimony on atrocities he supposedly committed. The man doesn't seem too certain about what he is supposed to have done, and jokes that he had forgotten about the massacre of an entire village that he had supposedly participated in.
Now Campbell is claiming I damaged his reputation by showing this film clip. He claims that John Kerry's portrayal of Vietnam veterans as war criminals, a barbarian horde akin to Genghis Khan's, is true and accurate. Stolen Honor defamed him, he says, because it characterizes him, John Kerry, and the other anti-war veterans as frauds and liars.
So, in one of the lawsuits against me, Kenneth Campbell is suing me for defamation. You can help with my defense here.
----------
Will you help me raise the $750,000 or more I need for my defense -- which includes the VVLF's efforts to unearth the rest of the story long missing from the history of the Vietnam war?
We need contributions of any amount -- $25, $50, $100, $1,000 -- less if that's all you can give, more if you are able. Your contributions are tax-deductible. You can contribute here. Or you can mail a check made out to VVLF to:
Vietnam Veterans Legacy Foundation P.O. Box 95000-1655 Philadelphia, PA 19195-1655
----------
If you give $50 or more, you'll receive a copy of Whitewash/Blackwash, a riveting new 52-page booklet exposing long-held myths about the Vietnam War.
If you give $100 or more, in addition to the book you'll receive a special director's edition DVD of Stolen Honor that includes the story of how the film was made and scenes that didn’t make the final cut.
Whatever you can give, you will have my undying gratitude. If the lawsuit against me is successful, it will send a frightening message to journalists, scholars and opinion makers: "Keep your hands off the Left! Don't even attempt to question their lies and myths. Let their version stand as the true story in the media, in textbooks and in the popular culture. Let Vietnam veterans go down in history as 'baby-killers' -- or we will come after you."
We can't let that happen. We have to fight back, uncover the whole truth, and defend our honor.
----------
Please make your donation here. And please forward this message to anyone you know who might be interested in helping out.
We can unmask John Kerry, Jane Fonda, and the anti-war movement!
We anticipate uncovering a large volume of previously undisclosed or classified documents in the legal "discovery" process, records Sen. Kerry and his allies have arduously attempted to cover up for decades.
We can unearth details of Jane Fonda's involvement in the anti-war movement, her admitted but never detailed financial support for the Vietnam Veterans Against the War organization and the entire anti-war movement. We can also learn more about how the Soviet Union and the North Vietnamese communists directed anti-war activities.
It was Kerry and his fellow protestors who were directly responsible for creating the false image of Vietnam veterans as a "barbarian horde" which raped and murdered innocent civilians daily as a matter of policy.
It's that mythology, first popularized in the testimony of Lt. Kerry and repeated for more than three decades by the media and the popular culture, that continues to haunt our young men and women serving in the military today, propaganda that threatens current U.S. foreign policy and our national security. It was those lies that Stolen Honor exposed. And it's those lies that Vietnam Veterans Legacy Foundation is dedicated to exposing and correcting. Help me expose John Kerry, Jane Fonda, and the anti-war movement as part of my legal defense.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your support.
Sincerely yours,
Carlton Sherwood

$25 Donation set. We all appreciate the help of the Vietnam Veterans in the last election. I hope all readers will contribute SOMETHING. Even 5 dollars will help when multiplied by the thousands of readers.
BTTT !!
That is what they said and why I am sending money. Every time these scumbags try to lie we need to turn it back on them with the truth. They use the lawyers and the courts to enforce their lies. We need to band together to prevent it.
Can sKerry be called, would like to see him squirming on the stand?
John Kerry- some selected, informative links...Click the picture & goto "last" for the latest:
That figures. Kerry is to much of a coward to come forward himself; so his wittle pals do the dirty and I might add, very stupid suing.
I wonder what they hope to gain?
On the way. Thanks for the heads-up Lando.
Stolen Honor may now move back to the Best Seller List.

Of course Campbell would never admit that he damaged his own damn reputation.

Stinking bassturd!!!
That video showed the young man being coaxed to fabricate testimony as clear as day. The only shame involved with this whole incident is that more American's haven't seen these people for what they are. They are enemies of America!
I hope all conservatives and Veterans groups dig deep for this. This is more than a battle of the left against one man, it's a battle for exposing the truth behind the antiwar movement.
