I do not remember Stanton ripping on the Special Forces for atrocities in Vietnam. I would agree that he puts a sympathetic spin to John Walker Lindh (he does not deserve sympathy for what he was doing against the U.S. and he knew full well what he was doing - I do not buy that he was too young argument). I still think this is a book that portrays the SF in a positive light. Thanks for your opinion. I do not remember Stanton ripping on the Special Forces for atrocities in Vietnam.

His sympathy is with the enemy. I could not get past his blaming Army Special Forces for alleged atrocities in VIetnam (unsupported accusation). His sympathy for traitors is evident too in the first chapters of his book. I could not finish this liberal hype. Dale R.
