Although this might be a little off subject, the only connection is that had
it not been for shortwave radio, I would not have heard about what I'm going
to relate. As a Vietnam veteran, I wish all vets, be they from the Korean
war, or Vietnam would get off the bashing Jane Fonda thing and concentrate
on a much bigger problem that we have. The Allaince of Families website
tells of POW's that were left behind in both Korea and Vietnam. Actually,
it also has WWII and the Cold War too. Every vet should read the story of
Lt. Grlicka who was captured in 1965 and was interviewed on communist radio
and communist newpapers. When the POW's came home and Nixon said they were
all back, Lt. Grlicka was not amoung them. His wife has evidence that his
was alive as late as 1990 and she tells how the US government has stalled in
releasing any imformation about him. Do you know that of all the POW's
released in 1973, none had burns or missing arms or legs? In Korea two
prisoners were to be released and just before they were, the communists came
and took one off somewhere. He has never been heard from again. The other
POW was released. Why are vets so upset at J.Fonda for what she did when
their own government is stalling and hiding information? Yet we are now and
have in the past been helping the communist governments of the world with
aid. President Bush is suppose to have such a good relationship with Putin,
so why doesn't he ask about these POW's? Also, in 1983 Korean Flt. 007 was
supposedly shot down and all passengers were killed, including Congressman
Larry McDonald. Why have the bodies never been returned? Or if they are
alive, why have they not been returned? I care less about Ms. Fonda and her
past or even her present. Wasting time over what she is doing when all this
stuff is going on is just that, a waste of time. Thanks for reading this
long post. Ric.
