  What an excellent presentation. I am a Vietnam Vet. and spent 90% of my 15 months in country under combat conditions. Nothing that I experienced could compare to what Mr. Fer went thru. This man is a true hero every sense of the word. Thank you Mr. Fer and JOB WELL DONE.

  John Fer was one of my elementary school principals, at St. Anne's in Sumter, SC. I would love the opportunity to meet him again after all these years. I became a Capt in the USAF and have always remembered him throughout my school and professional training.

  Thank you Captain Fer. It's good to see him. I wore a POW bracelet bearing his name and prayed he would return home safely.

  Thank you for your service. I know a few also never gave up on getting the Laos POWs out that the government wouldn't because it was secret mission

  This is a great speech by Capt. Fer. I've read many books about Vietnam P.O.W.'s and I'm always amazed how they managed to follow the code and keep their morale up even through the darkest of times. What sticks out in my mind is where one POW said that the real heroes are the one's that never came home.

  This is amazing.  I clicked on this video to search for affirmation of the honor of John McCain's service which is evident in it but learned so much more about the wonderful network of communication and the mutual support of all the profoundly heroic men who bonded together in a deeply spiritual resistance within the American military code of honor.  You all deserve our deepest possible respect. Thank you John Fer for a great account of the experiences of you and your fellow American Heros!

  Although I have never served myself, I however have a great deal of respect ✊ for those who do and have and I would like to say this that it is more interesting 🤔 listening 👂 to those who have served tell their stories of their experiences of how things we’re going going for them, weather they we’re captured or not and there experience as a prisoner of war.<br>I find these people to be TRULY interesting 🤔 and I wish them all well and hope that in the future that more of the armed services would tell of their times good or bad, thanks 🙏 again for such an interesting 🤔 hour long talk.

  How do the POWs consider those 11 early releasers?
