I do Vietnam reenacting, so I'm familiar with the story, but that's was a great piece of filmwork.

I earnestly thought this was some sort of joke when I watched the Youtube video. I was laughing to myself as I thought, "who in hell could be stabbed, shot, and take shrapnel like that and still perform all those actions... They expect me to believe this?"

His story his beyond impressive. Thanks for posting this.
