>   Looks like Hanoi Jane may be honored as one of the "100 Women of the
>  Century".  JANE FONDA remembered?  Unfortunately many have forgotten
>   and still countless others have never known how Ms. Fonda betrayed
>   not only the idea of our "country" but the men who served and
>   sacrificed during Vietnam.
>  There are few things I have strong visceral reactions to, but Jane
>   Fonda's participation in what I believe to be blatant treason, is one
>   of them.  Part of my conviction comes from exposure to those who
>   suffered her attentions.  The first part of this is from an F-4E
>  pilot.  The pilot's name is Jerry Driscoll, a River Rat.  In 1978,  the
> Commandant of the USAF Survival School was a former POW in Ho Lo
Prison-the
> "Hanoi Hilton".
>
>  Dragged from a stinking cesspit of a cell, cleaned, fed, and dressed
>   in clean PJs, he was ordered to describe for a visiting American
>  "Peace Activist" the "lenient and humane treatment" he'd received.
>   He spat at Ms. Fonda, was clubbed, and dragged away.  During the
>   subsequent beating, he fell forward upon the camp Commandant's feet,
>  accidentally pulling the man's shoe off-which sent that officer berserk.
>
>   In '78, the AF Col still suffered from double vision (which
>   permanently ended his flying days) from the Vietnamese Col's frenzied
>   application of wooden baton.

> >From 1983-85, Col Larry Carrigan was the 347FW/DO (F-4Es).  He spent
>   6 years in the "Hilton"-the first three of which he was "missing in
>   action".  His wife lived on faith that he was still alive.  His group,
too,
> got the cleaned/fed/clothed routine in preparation for a "peace
delegation"
> visit.  They, however, had time and devised a plan a  tiny piece of paper,
> with his SSN on it, in the palm of his hand.  When paraded before Ms.
Fonda
> and a cameraman, she walked the line, shaking each man's hand and asking
> little encouraging snippets like:
>   "Aren't you sorry you bombed babies?" and "Are you grateful for the
>  humane treatment from your benevolent captors?" Believing this
>  HAD to be an act, they each palmed her their sliver of paper.  She
>  took them all without missing a beat.  At the end of the line and
>  once the camera stopped rolling, to the shocked disbelief of the
>   POWs, she turned to the officer in charge...and handed him the little
pile.
>
>   Three men died from the subsequent beatings.  Col Carrigan was almost
>   number four.  For years after their release, a group of determined
>   former POWs Including Col Carrigan, tried to bring Ms. Fonda and
>  others up on charges of treason.  I don't know that they used it, but
>   the charge of "Negligent Homicide due to Depraved
>   Indifference" would also seem appropriate.  Her obvious "granting of
>   aid and comfort to the enemy", alone, should've been sufficient for
>   the treason count.  However, to date, Jane Fonda has never been
>   formally charged with anything and continues to enjoy the privileged
>   life of the rich and famous.  I, personally, think that this is shame
>  on us, the American Citizenry.  Part of our shortfall is ignorance:
>   most don't know such actions ever took place.  Thought you might
>   appreciate the knowledge.  Most of you've probably already seen this
>  by now...only addition I might add to these sentiments is to remember the
>   satisfaction of relieving myself into the urinal at some airbase or
>   another where  "zaps" of Hanoi Jane's face had been applied.

>  To whom it may concern:
>
>  I was a civilian economic development advisor in Viet Nam, and was
>  captured by the North Vietnamese communists in South Viet Nam in
>  1968, and held for over 5 years.  I spent 27 months in solitary
>   confinement, one year in a cage in Cambodia, and one year in a "black
>   box" in Hanoi.  My North Vietnamese captors deliberately poisoned and
>   murdered a female missionary, a nurse in a leprosarium in Ban me
>   Thuot, South Vietnam, whom I buried in the jungle near the Cambodian
>   border.  At one time, I was weighing approximately 90 lbs.  (My
>  normal weight is 170 lbs.)  We were Jane Fonda's "war criminals."
>  When Jane Fonda was in Hanoi, I was asked by the camp
>  communist political officer if I would be willing to meet with Jane
>  Fonda.  I said  yes, for I would like to tell her about the real
treatment
> we POWs
>   were receiving, which was far different from the treatment purported
>   by the North Vietnamese, and parroted by Jane Fonda, as "humane and
>   lenient."  Because of this, I spent three days on a rocky floor on my
>   knees with outstretched arms with a piece of steel placed on my
>  hands, and beaten with a bamboo cane every time my arms dipped.
>
>   I had the opportunity to meet with Jane Fonda for a couple of hours
>   after I was released.  I asked her if she would be willing to debate
>  me on TV.  She did not answer me, her former husband, Tom Hayden,
>  answered for her.  She was mind controlled by her husband.  This does
>   not exemplify someone who should be honored as "100 Years of Great
Women."
>
>   After I was released, I was asked what I thought of Jane Fonda and
>   the anti-war movement.  I said that I held Joan Baez's husband in
>   very high regard, for he thought the war was wrong, burned his draft
>  card and went to prison in protest.  If the other anti-war protesters
>   took this same route, it would have brought our judicial system to a
>   halt and ended the war much earlier, and there wouldn't be as many on
>  that somber black granite wall called the Vietnam Memorial.  This is
>   democracy.  This is the American way. Jane Fonda, on the other hand
chose
> to be a traitor, and went to Hanoi, wore their uniform, propagandized for
the
> communists,
>  and urged American soldiers to desert.  As we were being tortured, and
some
> of the POWs murdered, she called us liars.  After her heros-the North
> Vietnamese communists-took over South Vietnam, they systematically
murdered
> 80,000 South Vietnamese political prisoners.  May their souls rest on her
> head forever.  Shame!  Shame!  ( History is a heavy sword in the hands of
> those who refuse to forget it.  Think of this the next time you see Ms.
> Fonda-Turner at a Braves game).
>
>   Please take the time to read and forward to as many people as you

>   needs to know that "we will never forget".  Lest we forget..."100
>   years of great women" Jane Fonda should never be considered.
