Ask those who were there

Sir,

I respectfully submit that if you wish to know the truth, you should ask those who were there. Vice Admiral James Stockdale, USN, Retired, may be reached through the Hoover Institue, http://www-hoover.stanford.edu/main/form/form.html.

There are others. And, alas, far too many from whom we shall never hear again. If you truly desire the truth (which I doubt), you will seek it out.
