The only way most Vets would "mend fences" with her would be to use her bare bones (woven into barbed wire) to keep the cattle in!

I am sure Dottore would find her and her AAA emplacement comrades to be "Charming and lovely people."

I personally view her to be a filthy ****, but that's just me.

I think you are being nice, I never cared for her myself.

Probably a hero!

I wondered why my step-dad would not watch on golden ponds when I was younger, he set me straight when I asked. He would have liked to have used this latrine

Still remember the "Hanoi Jane" piss pads in the BOQ bathrooms on EVERY Air Base we went to in the 1970's and 1980's.

Friend of mine was a Vietnam helo pilot. Flew Learjets doing charter work in the 1980's. He was assigned to fly Hanoi Jane on a trip years ago. He refused and packed his bags that day. Told the boss that he would rather eat dirt than have anything to do with her. He still feels the same way today.

So do I...

I would love to see an interview with her in which she tells about all the times she's been refused service or gotten (deservedly) rude treatement from Vietnam vets and others who hate her.

You need to go the Oasis Steakhouse in Manhattan Montana then! Its supposedly the best steakhouse in the whole state. Was there a few years ago and sat down with my copilot, then got to talking with the waitress while the food was being cooked.

Seems that Ted Turner, who lives in the area, had driven up to the place without a reservation on a busy night. When told that it was a 45 minute wait, he asked to see the manager. The owner came up and after meeting Ted and said that you are a national hero and that he could find a table for him right away. Ted turned around and said "let me get Jane" when Scott, the owner stopped him. Ted asked what was the problem and Scott said I will get a table for you but if you are bringing her in here then you will have to wait. Ted walked out in a huff and never returned.

Fast forward two years later and a friend of mine flew into Bozeman. He had 5-6 hours to kill and asked what there was to do in the area. Someone mentioned "The Oasis" and that it was a good steak house if he was hungry. My friend casually asked "is this the place that Ted and Hanoi Jane were thrown out of?" and he was told yes.

He then went on to say that he had heard this "cock and bull story" from a pilot friend of his and that it was probably 80% BS, and went on to relate what we had been told at The Oasis. When he was finished one of the ladies working behind the desk came forwards and said "well, your friend was 100% correct but I can give you a bit more information on what happened that night" if you want the rest of the story.

It seems that the lady was there with her husband having dinner that night when this happened, so she knew exactly what occured. She then told my friend that the reason why the place was packed was that it was December and that there was a large group meeting there for their holiday dinner. The group eating there that night was the Veterans of Foreign Wars and there were a large number of Vietnam vets there that night.

Scott, the owner is also a Vietnam Vet and he told them after they left would not have allowed her in anyway, but he told the rest of the group that he was afraid that someone there would kill her had he seated her. Justice is swift and not always meted out by the law in Montana and Hanoi Jane might have been better to have left the scene when she did.

Here is a copy of the sticker that we had in the "O Clubs" overseas in the pisser. These were placed in the backside of each urinal so that when the call of nature came, we took aim and gave Hanoi Jane a good shot. She deserved every bit of it and more!

Just a sample of her mindset:

In April 1970, Fred Gardner, Fonda and Donald Sutherland formed the FTA Tour ("Free The Army"), a play on the troop expression "**** The Army"), an anti-war road show designed as an answer to Bob Hope’s USO tour.

When cases of torture began to emerge among POWs returning to the United States, Fonda called the returning POWs "hypocrites and liars." She added, "These were not men who had been tortured. These were not men who had been starved. These were not men who had been brainwashed." On the subject of torture in general, Fonda told The New York Times in 1973, "I'm quite sure that there were incidents of torture... but the pilots who were saying it was the policy of the Vietnamese and that it was systematic, I believe that's a lie."

Wonder what McCain thinks of that last sentence?

The bathroom in the Sevierville TN airport FBO still had a Hanoi Jane sticker in the urinal not too long ago.....wonder if it still there?

Mule · 07-12-2008, 10:41 AM

I think Sevierville & San Francisco are the last 2. The one on SF has never been wet, except when it was being kissed!

You can bet that it was put there by a Vet!

Reminds me, might pick up some of these stickers and "disperse them" in the proper places!

BeyGon · 07-12-2008, 11:54 AM

I think I saw those stickers for sale at the Vietnam Vet wall in DC. I didn't buy anything there.

When was that? Oh, back in the Barbarella days. Yes, she was smokin' hot once upon a time. The first 30 seconds of Barbarella have probably never been duplicated or bettered by anyone. Demi Moore gave it a shot in Stripper.
