A  TRAITOR IS ABOUT TO BE HONORED - KEEP THIS MOVING  ACROSS AMERICA 


This is for all the  kids born in the 70's and after who do not  remember, and didn't have to bear the burden  that our fathers, mothers and older brothers and  sisters had to bear.. 

Jane  Fonda is being honored as one of  the '100 Women of the Century.'  

BY BARBRA WALTERS  WRITES :
    
    Unfortunately,  many have forgotten and still countless others  have never known how Ms. Fonda betrayed not only  the idea of our country, but specific men who  served and sacrificed during Vietnam   

The first part of this is from an F-4E  pilot. The pilot's name is Jerry Driscoll,  a River Rat. 

In 1968, the former Commandant  of the USAF   Survival School was a POW in Ho Lo  Prison the ' Hanoi Hilton.' 

Dragged  from a stinking cesspit of a cell, cleaned, fed,  and dressed in clean PJ's, he was ordered to  describe for a visiting American 'Peace  Activist' the 'lenient and humane treatment'  he'd received. 


He spat at Ms. Fonda,  was clubbed, and was dragged away.  During  the subsequent beating, he fell forward
on to  the camp Commandant 's feet, which sent that  officer berserk. 

In 1978, the Air Force  Colonel still suffered from double vision (which  permanently ended his flying career) from the  Commandant's frenzied application of a wooden  baton. 

From 1963-65, Col. Larry Carrigan  was in the 47FW/DO (F-4E's). He spent 6 years in  the 'Hanoi Hilton',,, the first three of which  his family only knew he was 'missing in action'.  His wife lived on faith that he was still alive.   His group, too, got the cleaned-up, fed  and clothed routine in preparation for a 'peace  delegation' visit. 

They, however, had  time and devised a plan to get word to the world  that they were alive and still survived. Each  man secreted a tiny piece of paper, with his  Social Security Number on it , in the palm of  his hand. 

When paraded before Ms. Fonda  and a cameraman, she walked the line, shaking  each man's hand and asking little encouraging  snippets like: 'Aren't you sorry you bombed  babies?' and 'Are you grateful for the humane  treatment from your benevolent captors?'  Believing this HAD to be an act, they each  palmed her their sliver of paper. 

She  took them all without missing a beat.. At the  end of the line and once the camera stopped  rolling, to the shocked disbelief of the POWs,  she turned to the officer in charge and handed  him all the little pieces of paper..  

Three men died from the subsequent  beatings. Colonel Carrigan was almost number  four but he survived, which is the only reason  we know of her actions that day. 

I was a  civilian economic development advisor in Vietnam  , and was captured by the North Vietnamese  communists in South  Vietnam in 1968, and held prisoner for  over 5 years. 

I spent 27 months in  solitary confinement; one year in a cage in  Cambodia ; and one year in a 'black box' in  Hanoi My North Vietnamese captors deliberately  poisoned and murdered a female missionary, a  nurse in a leprosarium in Ban me Thuot , South  Vietnam , whom I buried in the jungle near the  Cambodian border. At one time, I weighed only  about 90 lbs. (My normal weight is 170 lbs)  

We were Jane Fonda's 'war criminals....'  

When Jane Fonda was in Hanoi , I was  asked by the camp communist political officer if  I would be willing to meet with her.. 

I  said yes, for I wanted to tell her about the  real treatment we POWs received... and how  different it was from the treatment purported by  the North Vietnamese, and parroted by her as  'humane and lenient.' 

Because of this, I  spent three days on a rocky floor on my knees,  with my arms outstretched with a large steel  weights placed on my hands, and beaten with a  bamboo cane. 

I had the opportunity to  meet with Jane  Fonda soon after I was released. I asked  her if she would be willing to debate me on  TV. She never did answer me. 

These  first-hand experiences do not exemplify someone  who should be honored as part of '100 Years  of Great Women.' Lest we forget....' 100 Years  of Great Women' should never include a traitor  whose hands are covered with the blood of so  many patriots. 

There are few things I  have strong visceral reactions to, but Hanoi   Jane 's participation in blatant treason, is one  of them. Please take the time to forward to as  many people as you possibly can.. It will  eventually end up on her computer and
she  needs to know that we will never forget. RONALD  D. SAMPSON, CMSgt, USAF 716 Maintenance  Squadron, Chief of Maintenance DSN: 875-6431  COMM: 883-6343
