6 distinguished Flying crosses and the CMoH? My god, thats very impressive. Anyone know about this person's life, i would love to hear how he earned all those medals. History Channel should do a story on these people.

| wow, I am going to by me a DVD of this. I'm glad these hero's stories are finally being told. Kerry has almost as many medals as these men, what a shame, |

Anybody know when this is going to be available?
I had to walk away from my computer several times for each of the clips.
The English language is insufficient to allow me to express my appreciation to these men for their heroics and resolve. "Thank You" does not suffice, but they are the only words I know.
John ******* Kerry a war hero? This is a word I know: NOT
