<HTML>Hi willy,
I understand your point of view and I somewhat agree with you. Perhaps his dislike could have been said in a different way, I\'m just against bashing him personally for what he went through during his time in the war. If Captain Duffy calls Hardegen a braggart that does not disrespect Hardegen\'s service record. Maybe Hardegen is a braggart?? Who knows? Not many of us know Hardegen and Capt. Duffy has met with him twice. So maybe his opinion and that of others of him should be kept in mind when we discuss Hardegen as we really don\'t know what type of person he was. Maybe he liked some people and others not. Captain Duffy was apparently not one of them and therefore Captain Duffy\'s justifications should be noted in such a manner.
Best regards,
Fin Bonset
P.S. Sorry Gummi for slightly continuing this but I needed to get that out of my system.</HTML>
