Zoltan--<no one doubts that before his illness....he knew exactly where he was during WWII> Can you produce evidence of that? These anecdotes are while he was still in office. From the same article: "He had told a group of Medal of Honor winners an anecdote about an 8th Air Force bomber pilot who, when his B-17 was mortally hit by flak, ordered th crew to jump from the flaming aircraft, he discovered that the ball gunner was trapped in his turret, wounded, and terrified of dying alone. The pilot took off his parachute, went back to the ballturret position behind the wings, and lay down on the floor so that he could put his arm into the turret and hold the dying boy's hand. 'Don't sweat it, son. We"ll go down together', he told the gunner as the plane plunged to the ground.

This brought tears not only to Reagan's eyes; it brought tears to the eyes of the Medal of Honor winners. The only problem, as the press soon discovered, was that it had never happened. It was a scene from a movie, which the President had unwittingly transposed to real life."
