    Quoting from the link...

    Mawhinney said in that interview that although he wasn’t comfortable talking about his accomplishments, he decided to use the chance for another purpose.



    “It’s an opportunity for me to get some recognition for a lot of the Vietnam vets that didn’t receive any recognition,” he said. “We were all there together. If I have to take recognition for it that’s OK, because every time I talk to someone, I can talk about the vets. It gives me an opportunity to talk about what a great job they did.”

    Godspeed Sir.

    I was in a bookstore Sunday and saw a book about him, it’s being released in paperback early in March.
