He states that he is the least decorated GI form Vietnam.
He wrote an article about military medals. He believes most are not truly earned.
"I continue to condemn those who want IDF to rescue hostages other than by military force. Hamas needs to be destroyed. That will end hostage taking. If Hamas now releases all the hostages, they will soon take new ones. It is their only trick other than using Palestinian human shields.
.
Will Hamas likely kill any remaining hostages if IDF attacks? Yes. That die was cast 10/7/23. Hamas will not both release existing hostages and make a credible promise not to take any more in the future.
.
Hamas needs to be wiped out."
