-Caveat Lector-
TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN;
I AM SORRY YOU ARE MAKING A BIG MISTAKE NOMINATING JANE ( HANOI )
FONDA AS A WOMAN OF ANYTHING LET ALONE WOMAN OF THE CENTURY.
SHE IS WORSE THAN PRESIDENT ( DRAFT DODGER BILL CLINTON) AND DESERVES TO BE
EXPELLED FROM THIS COUNTRY THAT I PAID A PRICE OF BLOOD FOR AND MANY OF MY
BROTHERS DIED FOR.
I CAN STILL SEE HER SITTING ON AN ANTIAIRCRAFT GUN IN NORTH VIETNAM
WHILE MY BROTHERS WERE FIGHTING AND DYING, AND MY BROTHERS WERE BEING BEATEN
AND TORTURED IN PRISON IN NORTH VIETNAM.
TO DO THIS UNSPEAKABLE THING IS THE SAME AS DESECRATING THE VIETNAM MEMORIAL
AND GRAVES OF THE OVER 58,000 DEAD AND MISSING.
I FOR 1 WILL NEVER WATCH ABC AGAIN IF YOU PERSIST IN GOING AHEAD WITH
YOUR PLANS.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
On this Friday, Barbara Walters is hosting a TV "Special" honoring "100
years of great women" in which Jane Fonda is included. I am sending you 4
letters dealing with this (including web addresses of ABC as well as Barbara
Walter's home page.
I don't write much, and I do not have the mailing list you have, but I am
sending you these letters in the hopes you can disseminate them as widely and
as quickly as possible. We may not be able to get it stopped, but hopefully
we can express our views as Nam vets.
I can't attach them so they will be forwarded separately.
Thanks again my friend.

The View
</A>
OK all within reach of this Email and all your friends and all veterans that
you can send this to.
Just click on "The View" and give Barbara Walter's your views and thoughts as
to Jane "Hanoi" Fonda being featured/honored on her "100-Women of The
Century" special due to air on April 30th 1999.
Remember if you want to have you email read "BE PROFESSIONAL"
say it with class and don't be vulgar and or insulting, just air your
feelings.
I told Barbara, in my message, it was a disgrace and a dishonor to us, as
Vietnam Veterans, to feature Jane" Hanoi" Fonda on this special.
In any other war and for any other person they would have been tried and
convicted for treason.
I also told her that many veterans of Vietnam's wives were more deserving of
being honored along with someone like "Martha Raye" than "Hanoi" Jane.
I also reminded Barbara and ABC-News about what happen to CNN's Peter Arnett
for his blunder on the "Tailwind" story and that the same resources are
staged and have stronger feelings about Jane "Hanoi" Fonda.
Remember numbers of messages and quality of content count to get ABC's
attention. So ask 10 people to do the same and ask them to ask 10 people to
do the same. Remember 10x10 x10 adds up real fas to a lot of messages.
Post your request on all Chat rooms and WEB Sites (Military) and media sites
you can.
This has to be a team effort and done now to give ABC a chance to react prior
to Friday.
I doubt if ABC will cut "Hanoi Jane" but if enough people write and we get
other networks and or media sources to ask questions they may have to say
something
disclaim her "Hanoi Jane's" choice, since they picked it up from Ladies Home
Journal.
Remember CNN's Ted (Hanoi Jane "s) Turner also said that Peter Arnett would
not be fired..REMEMBER...
Time is of importance "Do your part NOW !!!..if not for yourself, for those
58,000 that did not return.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Here is a sample of a professional style letter format to utilize in sending
to Barbara Walters and ABC also all your local news media and local TV
outlets .
You also need to send it to at least 10 friends and or post it on 10 Web
Sites.
Requesting that each reader send to 10 other sources to repeat the process.
Remember ABC will only pay attention to numbers of messages on this subject
not so much the individual content. BUT KEEP YOUR POST " Professional "
So what you need to do is not only send them the message once, but repeat
sending the message to them each day until the 30th.
Since the Barbara Walters 20/20 Special segment has already been produced
and ready for airing the chances of getting them to delete Jane Fonda from
the segment
will be nil unless we can get thousands of messages to them ASAP.
BUT if they don't delete Jane Fonda we at least, through our efforts, let
them know as to how we as veterans feel and just mybe ABC and other media
will be more sensertive to our feelings in the future.
Following the sample letter is a listing of WEB Sites that you can enter to
post your
personal Email address and encourage others to do same. be sure to include
the ABC Email addresses and WEB Site.

Subject: Barbara Walters
Sirs,
Any attempt to honor Jane Fonda as a "Woman of the Century" or in any other
fashion by ABC or Barbara Walters, will just be another media slap in the
face for the thousands of veterans who view this woman as a traitor by any
definition of the word. Fighting a war is bad enough, to have your own
countrymen turn on you and reviling you for doing your duty, is something I
have never been able to overcome. But to lionize a traitor who went to the
enemy country and encouraged the enemy is just more than I need. Axis Sally
got jailed for her treason, Tokyo Rose got jailed for her treason, Jane Fondo
got rich. I don't expect true justice, but I don't expect to be slapped in
the face again with this spectacle. I shall tape the show, and if she is
honored in any way, I will personally never watch ABC television again. I
shall also make it my duty to take every step I can to boycott ever sponsor
of the show. As a member and secretary of several military organizations, I
will exhaust all means to get the word out. As Peter Arnett and the
discredited CNN has discovered, there are a lot of vets out here in the real
world.
This is not a threat to your first amendment rights, which I helped to
protect in two wars, but rather a plea for good taste. The media has done
enough to the Viet-nam vet.

BARBARA WALTERS; http://abc.go.com/theview/cohosts/walters/index.html
ABC NEWS 20/20: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
TO; Dear Ms. Barbara Walters:
(ABC 20/20 " Women of the Century ,Special April 30, 1999)
First let me first say that I am an admirer of your work and have been for
many years. However, I am extremely disappointed to learn that you have
included Jane Fonda on your upcoming program "100 Years of Great Women".
As a Viet Nam veteran I found her visit to Hanoi in 1972 to be despicable.
Not only did she consort with the enemy, she called our Prisoners of War
liars. The images of her sitting behind those anti-aircraft guns bring back
my personal pain and the sadness I felt for the families of men in my unit,
the guys from my neighborhood and the classmates from high school, college
and OCS who were gave their lives there. While there were many people did
not support our government's involvement in Viet Nam, they found ways of
making their feelings known without contributing to the deaths of Americans
servicemen and women.
It is beyond my comprehension that she would be placed on a public platform
and honored for acts that would have had her tried and convicted of treason
at any other time in our history. I am afraid that some people still don't
get it. We the veterans of the Viet Nam war continue to be victimized
almost 27 years later by honoring Jane Fonda. Whatever she may have
accomplished on film has been negated by her actions in Hanoi. I want to
remind all citizens what she meant to us then and what she means to us today.
I am particularly concerned about those not old enough to remember the war
but certainly old enough to be influenced by glorifying a woman like Jane
Fonda.
Sincerely,
Viet Nam Veteran

Jane Fonda Broadcast from Hanoi, August 22 1972

The following public domain information is a transcript from the US Congress
House Committee on Internal Security, Travel to Hostile Areas, HR 16742,
19-25 September, 1972, page 7671. From the CompuServe Military Veteran's
Forum.)
[Radio Hanoi attributes talk on DRV visit to Jane Fonda; from Hanoi in
English to American servicemen involved in the Indochina War, 1 PM GMT, 22
August 1972. Text: Here's Jane Fonda telling her impressions at the end of
her visit to the Democratic Republic of Vietnam; (follows recorded female
voice with American accent);]
This is Jane Fonda. During my two week visit in the Democratic Republic of
Vietnam, I've had the opportunity to visit a great many places and speak to a
large number of people from all walks of life-workers, peasants, students,
artists and dancers, historians, journalists, film actresses, soldiers,
militia girls, members of the women's union, writers.
I visited the (Dam Xuac) agricultural coop, where the silk worms are also
raised and thread is made. I visited a textile factory, a kindergarten in
Hanoi. The beautiful Temple of Literature was where I saw traditional dances
and heard songs of resistance. I also saw unforgettable ballet about the
guerrillas training bees in the south to attack enemy soldiers. The bees were
danced by women, and they did their job well.
In the shadow of the Temple of Literature I saw Vietnamese actors and
actresses perform the second act of Arthur Miller's play All My Sons, and
this was very moving to me-the fact that artists here are translating and
performing American plays while US imperialists are bombing their country.
I cherish the memory of the blushing militia girls on the roof of their
factory, encouraging one of their sisters as she sang a song praising the
blue sky of Vietnam-these women, who are so gentle and poetic, whose voices
are so beautiful, but who, when American planes are bombing their city,
become such good fighters.
I cherish the way a farmer evacuated from Hanoi, without hesitation, offered
me, an American, their best individual bomb shelter while US bombs fell near
by. The daughter and I, in fact, shared the shelter wrapped in each others
arms, cheek against cheek. It was on the road back from Nam Dinh, where I had
witnessed the systematic destruction of civilian targets-schools, hospitals,
pagodas, the factories, houses, and the dike system.
As I left the United States two weeks ago, Nixon was again telling the
American people that he was winding down the war, but in the rubble-strewn
streets of Nam Dinh, his words echoed with sinister (words indistinct) of a
true killer. And like the young Vietnamese woman I held in my arms clinging
to me tightly-and I pressed my cheek against hers-I thought, this is a war
against Vietnam perhaps, but the tragedy is America's.
One thing that I have learned beyond a shadow of a doubt since I've been in
this country is that Nixon will never be able to break the spirit of these
people; he'll never be able to turn Vietnam, north and south, into a
neo-colony of the United States by bombing, by invading, by attacking in any
way. One has only to go into the countryside and listen to the peasants
describe the lives they led before the revolution to understand why every
bomb that is dropped only strengthens their determination to resist.
I've spoken to many peasants who talked about the days when their parents had
to sell themselves to landlords as virtually slaves, when there were very few
schools and much illiteracy, inadequate medical care, when they were not
masters of their own lives.
But now, despite the bombs, despite the crimes being created-being committed
against them by Richard Nixon, these people own their own land, build their
own schools-the children learning, literacy- illiteracy is being wiped out,
there is no more prostitution as there was during the time when this was a
French colony. In other words, the people have taken power into their own
hands, and they are controlling their own lives.
And after 4,000 years of struggling against nature and foreign invaders-and
the last 25 years, prior to the revolution, of struggling against French
colonialism-I don't think that the people of Vietnam are about to compromise
in any way, shape or form about the freedom and independence of their
country, and I think Richard Nixon would do well to read Vietnamese history,
particularly their poetry, and particularly the poetry written by Ho Chi
Minh.

women and their rise from second and third-class citizens.,” Walters says.

legendary women whose contributions and commitments to their individual
beliefs have reshaped the past century.”

Wow! This news about Barbara Walters and Jane Fonda came out of left field.
Barbara Walters - she with the same pained expression after every news
segment - apparently not too pained to name Jane Fonda one of the women of
the century.
Brothers, we may not agree on many things but this is the kind of thing in
which we can show our power. I'm e-mailing Walters now and I hope you will
and let other vet groups on-line know about this. Flood the bastards with
denunciations of this hypocritical bullshit and they will have second
thoughts!
Anyone with more information, please let us know. Sorry for the swearing
but I never liked Barbara Walters' pseudo upper-class nasal twang, puritan
snuffle mannerisms anyway and Jane Fonda deserves to hear again how much we
appreciate what she did.

Attention: Barbara Walters, The View and 20/20: Women of the Century
It is disheartening to hear that a woman of your importance and prestige
fails to comprehend the insult it will be to have Jane Fonda included as a
"Woman of the Century". She, in my opinion, is a "traitor of the century".
She visited North Vietnam at a time when many of our servicemen were at war
with that nation. I think of my entire crew who perished aboard an Air
Rescue helicopter, Jolly Green 60, in 1972 while she was in Hanoi, cavorting
with the enemy, posing for pictures. Don't defame their memory, their
sacrifices by including Hanoi Jane on any program intended to honor women of
the 20th century. I can list the names of the six wives and mothers for you
to include who lost their husbands and sons on that aircraft. How about Gold
Star mothers of Vietnam Veterans, Korean War Veterans, Desert Storm Veterans,
or the three mothers of our soldiers now being held hostage in Kosovo? These
are women who should be honored by their inclusion on a program of this
magnitude. These are women who have sacrificed more than any program can
honor.
I don't think you can count Jane Fonda as a "national heroine" nor as a
"Woman of the Century". Please reconsider your decision to include this
traitor on your program.
Thank you.
