His name is Bud Day, just found it. I love checking out this kind of stuff about real living US military heroes.
This guy served in WWII, the Korean War, and the Vietnam War! He was shot down in Vietnam and shared a cell with John Mccain. |

He was shot down in Vietnam and shared a cell with John Mccain. That'a untrue! He's not even close to being the most decorated. That's a Republican Myth! There is a lot of difference between being a Pilot and being on the ground in Combat! Audie Murphy is! In 27 months of combat action in World War II, Murphy became the most decorated United States combat soldier in United States military history. |

In a confrontation with Bush shortly after switching parties! Webb said he almost slugged Bush! LMAO!!! On November 28, 2006, at a White House reception for those newly elected to Congress, Webb declined to stand in the line to have his picture taken with the president, whom Webb often criticized during the campaign. The president approached Webb later and asked him, "How's your boy?", referring to Webb's son, a Marine serving in Iraq. According to Congressman Jim Moran of Virginia, aides warned the President to be "extra sensitive about talking to Webb about his son, since Webb's son had had a recent brush with death in Iraq."[28] Webb replied "I'd like to get them out of Iraq, Mr. President." Bush responded, "That's not what I asked you. How's your boy?" Webb responded, "That's between me and my boy, Mr. President." The Hill cited an anonymous source who claimed that Webb was so angered by the exchange that he confessed he was tempted to "slug" the president, but of course did not.[29] Webb later remarked in an interview, "I'm not particularly interested in having a picture of me and George W. Bush on my wall."[30] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jim_Webb#Terse_exchange_with_President_Bush You got to Love it!!!  what's so good about this? DUH! Sounds like another nutcase was elected to congress. Just what we need...another hothead waiting to explode. (sigh) |

I did not say Bud was the most, I said he was ONE of the most. He fought in three wars too! To Hell and Back is one of my favorite movies of all time. |

Yeah he is a good one. I just dont like the way he jumps on board with the Republicans to attack whoever it is they need a hero to attack in a given year!
He's like a political mercenary!! |

Plus my definition of a hero doesnt really include pilots!
Once they are up they are comitted and there isnt really any chance to run or chicken out! They fly a mission then go home to a hot meal and a warm bed! |

They used to have a museum dedicated to Audie in Wildflecken Germany when I was in the 3rd ID.
It was something to see. They had all the orders for all his medals there. Not just the two big ones! To be such a little guy he sure was something. He was only 5' 6" and 135 lbs. and his heart must have been 120 lbs of that! |

Webb is from Missouri too Winx!! I like Gephardt, Fanta.  I also know people that know him personally. They have many good things to say about him too. But...if Webb is from Missouri, he can't be half bad.
