...dontcha know he was in Viet Nam...

Corporal Archie Miller of Portsmouth, Ohio was finally ordered home when he received his 5th Purple Heart in 1945. While actually in battle, under enemy fire, and fighting aggressively unlike John Kerry, Miller was wounded 2 times by sniper fire, 2 times by mortar fire, and was last wounded by a Japanese hand grenade.
His wife said he was too tough to die.
(NY Times 08/03/45)
It is embarrassing to even mention Lurch in Viet Nam in the same context as this brave man.

Amen...Lurch was there for four months, got three Purple Hearts and never spent a day in a hospital.

Corporal Archie Miller is a hero while Lurch is a zero.
