-- Former Sen. Bob Dole Joins Vietnam POWs to Unveil Documentary DC Press Conference Thursday
-- Film of POW Experiences Exposes 30-Years of Resentment Against John Kerry
When John Kerry appeared before the U. S. Senate Foreign Relations Committee in the spring of 1971, his anti-war testimony accusing American soldiers of barbaric acts in Vietnam sent shock waves throughout America and the world. In a new documentary 'STOLEN HONOR: WOUNDS THAT NEVER HEAL', former POWs tell their compelling and chilling stories of their brutal life as prisoners of war in North Vietnam and the additional suffering and extended captivity they endured after their North Vietnamese captors read to them John Kerry's testimony accusing American soldiers of atrocities and demanded they confess to Kerry's "war crimes" allegations.
The surviving men and their families, who felt betrayed by Kerry, speak out through STOLEN HONOR against the lies, false testimony and distortions made by young Kerry in the early 1970's. Funding for the documentary was made possible by Pennsylvania Veterans.
WHO:
-- Carlton Sherwood, Pulitzer Prize Winning Producer
-- Former Senate Majority Leader Bob Dole
-- POW's George "Bud" Day, Jack L. Van Loan, Paul Galanti, Robert H. Shumaker, Ken Cordier and others
WHAT: Press conference and screening of STOLEN HONOR: WOUNDS THAT NEVER HEAL
WHEN: Thursday, September 9, 2004 10:30 a.m. EDT -- Press Conference 11 a.m. EDT -- Viewing of STOLEN HONOR
WHERE: Reserve Officers Association Building, 1 Constitution Avenue, NE, Washington, D.C. 20002
STOLEN HONOR is produced by Red White and Blue Productions, Inc., an independent film producer based in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. The 45-minute documentary includes testimony from highly decorated POWs and their wives revealing the truth about North Vietnamese prison camps and the ongoing negative portrayal and treatment of Vietnam veterans resulting directly from John Kerry's testimony and anti-war activities more than 30 years ago.
To schedule an interview please contact Amber Nettles with Shirley & Banister Public Affairs at 800-536-5920 or anettles@sbpublicaffairs.com.

There was a segment about "Stolen Honor" on CBN with Pat Robertson, and if you go to CBN.com they have provided a link to the documentary.
At the risk of celebrating before this thing is over, I just gotta say: Oh GOD, it is so good to see Kerry hoisted on his own petard. Oh MAN I just keep thinking about the men killed in Vietnam and thinking how they must be laughing out loud.
He who laughs last, laughs best.
But if I have to see one more pic of Kerry with all those (mostly) phony medals pinned on his sloppy, ill-fighting, hippie fatigues I may finally get the dry heaves I have been fighting off since he "reported for duty" at the Dem Convention.
Do you think he wore those medals to bed, pinned on his jammies?
He is almost too pathetic to dislike.
Almost. But yet, I find a way because each day he provides me with fresh inspiration. |
