This cannot go around too much. Those of us that were living in those
years will never forget that she was a traitor and did a lot of damage
to our b
oys.
She has now been chosen to play Nancy Reagan in her life story.
I am sending this one out because so many do not know this truth...
and also because she was on 3 times this week talking about her new book...
And how good she feels in her 70's... she still does not know what she
did wrong..her book just may not make the best list if more people
knew...
also...

Thank you all. Many died in Vietnam for our freedoms.
I did not like Jane Fonda then and I don't like her now.
She can lead her present life the way she wants and perhaps SHE can
forget the past, but we DO NOT have to stand by without comment and see
her "honored" as a "Woman of the Century".
(I remember this well)
For those who served and/or died. . .
NEVER FORGIVE A TRAITOR. SHE REALLY WAS A TRAITOR!!
and now President OBAMA wants to honor her......!!!!
In Memory of LT. C.Thomsen Wieland who spent 100 days at the Hanoi Hilton [Famous North Vietnam Prison].
IF YOU NEVER FORWARDED ANYTHING IN YOUR LIFE FORWARD THIS SO THAT EVERYONE WILL KNOW!!!!!!
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.'
BARBARA 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 the Vietnam War.
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 POW's, 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 adviser 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 Banme 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 POW's 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 weight 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.
