There are so many holes in that story, I don't know where to begin. The man appears to have evidence of severe trauma on his body, so something tore him up and probably mentally at the same time. It is highly unlikely that whatever it was tore him up happened in a North Vietnamese prison camp. Don't reporters for Newspapers check facts anymore? I guess not. Because the reporter who wrote that story swallowed the story hook line and sinker as did more than a few right here on FR.
I read somewhere the other day, and it might have been somewhere here on FR, that nine out of ten men who claim to be Vietnam Veterans really aren't. It's a phenomena that has psychiatrists scratching their heads.
I sent an email to the reporters
I have enjoyed the, busting the phony vet game for more than 30 years, but I have never done anything like you and that sheriff.
