The background for the new SwiftVet ad is depicted in the writing <font color=blue>"Skid Row"<font color=black> in Unfit to Command and available free via Human Events

Marine First Lieutenant Jim Warner had had a rough time, even for a POW in the gulag of North Vietnam in the spring of 1969. Having been interrogated and tortured for four months by the North Vietnamese, who threatened to hold him after the war for trial as a war criminal, Warner (once the proud backseat navigator of a Phantom jet) had just been transferred by the North Vietnamese to the <font color=blue>"place for punishment"<font color=black> outside Hanoi known by the prisoners as <font color=blue>"Skid Row."<font color=black> Just as things didn't seem that they could get much worse, they did.

An interrogator confronted Warner with testimony from his own mother and father asking for his return at John Kerry's Winter Soldier Investigation hearings. He told Warner, <font color=blue>"Even your parents know you are a war criminal." <font color=green>The interrogator showed Warner a large piece of cardboard with photographs of John Kerry and news clippings related to Kerry's Senate testimony and demonstrations and said that <font color=blue>"everyone knows you are a war criminal."<font color=green> Warner had resisted beyond caring, but he hoped that the North Vietnamese had made it all up. Upon reviewing his mother's testimony in The New Soldier, Warner asked: <font color=red>"What kind of ghoul would exploit my mother and family to claim I was a war criminal while I was in a North Vietnamese prison? How could someone do something like this for political advantage?"
