During this fierce onslaught Capt. Millett was wounded by grenade fragments but refused evacuation until the objective was taken and firmly secured.

Unlike John Eff Kerry who had his skin pricked by a grain of rice when the barrel was hit by shrapnel and who immediately wrote himself up for a purple heart for a wound that was treated with a band aid. I still want to know how J EFF Kerry was able to drag a personal photographer around VN to record his 6 months of "heroism"?

R.I.P. Col. Millett.

I remember reading about Col. Millett's exploits in ROTC leadership studies back in the late 80's...his story is every bit as inspiring now as it was then.

RIP, Colonel.
