I agree....they got Inoye in there.....they could have countered it with Bob Dole. I distinctly remember hearing an interview with Burns on CSpan where he said this was done with ONLY regular guys.....Inoye seems to be the exception.
Left out the Jimmy Dolittle raid on Japan in early 42. Unforgivable for a WWII Documetary. Guess he had to make room for the PC stuff.
“I agree....they got Inoye in there.....they could have countered it with Bob Dole.”
....exactly, or with any one of thousands of average GIs who fought with great courage and sacrifice....the backbone of the US Army has always been the white working class.
The highlight of last night’s episode was Inoyue’s father’s comments to him as he left to go to boot camp. His Dad was truly an American.
