I've watched it and its the biggest load of bullsh*t I've ever seen. Its interviews with a bunch of pilots that were captured and spent the war in POW camps, and they are commenting on what was going on in the ground war. Its hilarious that these guys were dropping ordinance and dog fighting, but had the time to watch what was going on in the field, from several thousdand fett in the air and at 700 miles per hour. Sure they did. And its not like they could talk about it in prison. They were supposedly forced into silence and could not communicate, so how did they know WHAT was going on. The pilots whined and complained about how they were wronged by Kerry, but not one of these "brave soldiers" bothered to say a single word to the group that visited Hanoi (with Jane Fonda) about their treatment. And they did not provide a single piece of evidence to support any of what they said, other than the word of those that were in the Hanoi Hilton. How can they hammer Kerry for hurting them when they wouldn't even help themselves or provide a single shred of evidence that disproved what Kerry was saying? The whole thing was a joke and to believe it you had to take several leaps of faith and take every word these guys said as gospel. Journalism it was not, and was not even a good attempt at slander. It was weak all around and oonly the weak minded would not have seen through the obvious politics it was promoting. Oh, and you also don't just get three purple hearts, a brinze and silver star as well.
