An American hero for sure. RIP. It’s been so long; I was thinking he was the captain of the spy ship captured by the North Koreans.

“According to a 2005 interview quoted by AL.com, Denton wished to be remembered as, “a guy who really did his best for God’s will being done on earth.”

God bless you, Senator Denton.

Post Vietnam, I taught a SERE (Survival Escape Resistance and Evasion) course to Division Troops (5th and 25th). Commander Denton’s experience as a POW was the source and inspiration for the course. After getting to know him and his life, I’ve asked many times before acting, ‘What would Commander Denton Do?’.

Commander Denton was my hero. Rest in Peace, Sir.

I rember these guys! And the “Hawaiian Good Luck” gesture was a tip-off too.

A reporter asked, "how have you been treated?

The broadcast on American television on May 17, 1966, held a secret message — This brave US Navy Commander, usin gMorse Code, had blinked out “T-O-R-T-U-R-E.”


God rest his soul and forever hold him dear.
He was a patriot like few others, IMO.

I expect John McCain to run out on the balcony covered in
blood saying he died in his arms.

I had the privilege of hearing Sen. Denton speak in 2004 while participating in the "Myths of the Vietnam War" conference in Boston. This was a meeting of the scholarly side of the anti-Kerry veterans' effort, and the former Senator provided fascinating information during his keynote address to the conference. Scroll down the transcript a bit to read his remarks.

Session 1

A more general link to the conference archives is available here.
