About three million people died in Indochina following communist take-overs there. This mass slaughter was held at bay only by US soldiers and US assistance to local military forces.

Those three million died because America withdrew, and anyone, everyone, who had a hand in causing that withdrawal must share in the guilt. The people Fonda most admired and still admires in this world have the blood of millions on their hands, and she does too. She will never recognize what she did because how could she live with it if she did?

That's not counting the thousands of us who came back to a very hostile 'welcome'. Even the VA clinicians will admit that the high percentage of chronic PTSD among us Nam Vets is due to how we were treated on coming back to the world. In fact, some will go so far as to say that the trauma of returning was worse than the war trauma itself.

Nothing quite like coming close to death, and seeing others die, only to find yourself an outcast on coming home.

The Fonda/Kerry crowd won't even get near that. That is the more disturbing part of their legacy. They have a lot to answer for.
