I got shot down over N
Vietnam in 1967, a Sqdn. Commander. After I returned in 1973...I published 2
books that dealt a lot with "real torture" in Hanoi. Our make believe president
is branding our country as a bunch of torturers when he has no idea what torture
is. As for me, put thru a mock execution because I would not respond... pistol
whipped on the head...same event. Couple of days later... hung by my feet all
day. I escaped and a couple of weeks later, I got shot and recaptured. Shot was
OK...what happened afterwards was not. They marched me to Vinh...put me in the
rope trick, trick...almost pulled my arms out of the sockets. Beat me on the
head with a little wooden rod until my eyes were swelled shut, and my un-shot,
unbroken hand a pulp. Next day hung me by the arms...re-broke my right
wrist...wiped out the nerves in my arms that control the hands...rolled my
fingers up into a ball. Only left the slightest movement of my left forefinger.
So I started answering with some incredible lies. Sent me to Hanoi strapped to a
barrel of gas in the back of a truck. Hanoi. on my knees....rope trick again.
Beaten by a big fool. Into leg irons on a bed in Heartbreak Hotel. Much
kneeling--hands up at Zoo. Really bad beating for refusing to condemn Lyndon
Johnson. Several more kneeling events. I could see my knee bone thru kneeling
holes. There was an escape from the annex to the Zoo. I was the Senior Officer
of a large building because of escape...they started a mass torture of all
commanders. I think it was July 7, 1969...they started beating me with a car fan
belt. In first 2 days I took over 300 strokes...then stopped counting because I
never thought I would live thru it. They continued day-night torture to get me
to confess to a non-existent part in the escape. This went on for at least 3
days. On my knees... fan belting...cut open my scrotum with fan belt stroke.
opened up both knee holes again. My fanny looked like hamburger... I could not
lie on my back. They tortured me into admitting that I was in on the
escape...and that my 2 room-mates knew about it. The next day I denied the lie.
They commenced torturing me again with 3- 6- or 9 strokes of the fan belt every
day from about July 11 or 12rh..to 14 October 1969. I continued to refuse to lie
about my roommates again.
Now, the point of this is that our make-believe president has declared to the
world that we (U.S.) are a bunch of torturers... Thus it will be OK to torture
us next time when they catch us...because that is what the U.S. does.
Our make-believe president is a know nothing fool who thinks that pouring a
little water on some one's face, or hanging a pair of women's pants over an
Arabs head is TORTURE. He is a meathead.
I just talked to MOH holder Leo Thorsness, who was also in my squadron, in
jail...as was John McCain...and we agree that McCain does not speak for the POW
group when he claims that Al Gharib was torture...or that "water boarding" is
torture. Our president and those fools around him who keep bad mouthing our
great country are a disgrace to the United States.
Please pass this info on to Sean Hannity. He is free to use it to point out the
stupidity of the claims that water boarding...which has no after effect...is
torture. If it got the Arab to cough up the story about how he planned the
attack on the twin towers in NYC ...hurrah for the guy who poured the water.
