The internet version I saw started with words flashing across such as fortitude, bravery. The first spoken sentence was :

In every war captured americans subjected to the hell of enemy prison were considered heroes in other wars they were not abandoned. In Vietnam we were betrayed

Ends with :
one man drowned the hope of thousands...
simply put, they want the truth, not parades or hero worship, just the plain truth and their dignity and honor restored... they didn't throw away their decorations or their honor, perhaps the men who did should come forward and set the record straight.
...rolling credits...

I watched clips from Stolen Honor a while back, on the 'net. It suffers from what artsy fartsy film critics call "the longueurs." It's a mite tedious. Even at 42 minutes.

Drastic cutting and some narration and stock footage would have given it more professional film values like we're used to.

Imagine watching a 42 minute long SwiftBoat vets ad.
