The difference, Stu, is that these guys knew the truth. Not second-hand knowledge, not "Some guy told me such-and-such, so I know it's true," but first-hand "I was there" truth. That's what sets them apart from, say, the Nazi screaming "Heil Hitler" as he is hung. (That, and the fact that a Nazi being hung for his war crimes doesn't really have the opportunity to recant.)
