I agree with your comments about Dennehy’s acting abilities. His lies about multiple tours in VietNam, wounded (Purple Heart), heroism, etc. just sort of puts him in the same catagory as Senator Richard Blumenthal (from article linked below}...
“Richard Blumenthal’s service would have been sufficiently honorable, and occasioned no comment, had he not chosen to exaggerate and distort it — not once, but repeatedly.”
I served for 4 years in the Marine Corps during the VietNam War(1970-1974), but was never “In-Country” nor have I ever claimed to be. My oldest brother did serve “In-Country” as a Marine and was awarded the Purple Heart (further reference: PANEL 52W, LINE 32 OF THE WALL and link below).
I invite each to read the linked sources.

Yeah, sad to learn about that. My dad and uncle served in Nam and my two bro’s served in Iraq. Thank you for your service.
