From various contemporary press reports:
Quote:
The story of Larry Thorne says a great deal about the real nature of the U.S. war in Vietnam, which combined anticommunism, anti-Asian racism, and barbarism toward the Vietnamese population. There are definite parallels between the U.S.-directed slaughter in Vietnam and the Nazi atrocities on the Eastern Front. But Shultz recounts the career of this Nazi collaborator turned American Green Beret as though it were a tale of epic heroism.
What in the world is wrong with the site designer that they thought this was an appropriate quote to use in conjunction with this site? It's disrespectful, inaccurate, and completely out of place on a website dedicated to someone who gave their life in battle for their adopted country.
