My Hero of Hero's Col. David Hackworth US Army Ret. I am so thrilled he took the time to actually answer the question. He is an Independent of course as I knew but being a TRUE SOLDIERS SOLDIER I sent a lengthy plea to him knowing this HAD to stick in his craw.
His official position is this: He is doing his homework into Kerry and his Follies. He has many, many resources in the D.O.D. and has assured us within 1 weeks time we will hear the skinny from one of the Most Decorated Soldiers ever to grace the uniform this side of Audie Murphy.
www.hackworth.com or www.sftt.com (Soldiers for the TRUTH)

I would love to share the email text with ahyone who respects him or otherwise. email me AllansHDfxdwg2@aol.com

Hack is a genuine hero....and even he had his troubles about wearing citations/awards to which he was not authorized.
