I’d send my story – but it’s hardly heroic. I was just hoping not to get shot when a mortar round hit too close.
I hope they've already contacted John F'ing Kerry, who, by the way, did serve in Vietnam. John F'ing's story could perhaps, laboriously, be pried out of him!
My brother got a Purple Heart for breaking his ankle when he had to bail out of his B17 over Germany. Do they really want stories like that for their museum?
