Harvey Mushman Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 One of my heroes. Met him after his return. If you have not read his book "When Hell was in Session", I highly recommend it to get a feel for what Vietnam POWs were subjected to. RIP Admiral, Senator. God Speed.

Strawboss, SASS #28759 Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 I was 13 when the POW's were released from Vietnam in 1973 and was fascinated by it all. I think his book and the movie made starring Hal Holbrook was the first time I read a book, then watched the movie. I will never forget the impact it made on me, they simply do not make men like him anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
