From Mackubin Thomas Owens in National Review on "John Kerry's Two Vietnams"While you are there - check out Let's get reeeeeaaaady to flip-flop! It seems that redeploying troops from Europe and Korea is pretty popular.As a correspondent pointed out to me in an e-mail, each episode of the HBO series Band of Brothers, begins with a voiceover in which the narrator says of the World War II soldiers portrayed in the program: "I was not a hero, but I was surrounded by heroes." In contrast, what John Kerry is saying in essence about his "band of brothers" is that "in Vietnam, I was a hero, but I was surrounded by war criminals."Except for those who basked in the aura of JFK II.
