Vietnam Vet who still holds a grudge

[The_Traveler]

At the Rolling Thunder event on Memorial Day weekend, which has a strong POW/MIA element, I asked this guy if I could take his picture.
He said, only if I could tell me why Jane Fonda sucks.
I could, and took this picture.

For those who don't know why the Vietnam Vets, as a class, have strong feelings about Jane Fonda, Jane Fonda visited North Vietnam during the war and let herself be photographed sitting at the controls of an aircraft gun. There are lots of urban myths about her meeting with POWs etc.. These have all been debunked by the actual POWs she met with. For me, however, just the the visit alone was enough for me to develop a lifelong visceral distaste for her however I try intellectualize her mission.

Please do not start posting about the politics of this either way.
