Wiki's entry on David Morrell. Interesting.

cambeul41, do you were a red sweat-band ripped from a piece of cloth, run around the woods from the law & speak with an Italian speech impediment? If not then don't worry about it, they are just idiots.

A British MP (I suppose that's our equivilant of a senator)

I don't know. They would have to be pretty useless to equate with an American Senator.

Hollywood seems to have a gift at mis-portraying Vietnam vets as maladaptive, broody, volatile, misunderstood misfits. Rambo typifies the stereotype. It used to bother me. It is what it is...B-grade entertainment. I've got more important things to occupy my thoughts these days like "What's for supper?" I'm 58 and lucky if I have 20 years left. A good meal, regularity, a pair of not-too-tight trousers...an occasional rambling post on the Internet. Who's got time for Rambo?

I think the original question has been answered, and its starting to go a bit off topic.
