Administration expands ex-POW benefits

By Bend Bugle News Reports

Published: October 3, 2004

WASHINGTON – Continuing its commitment to former prisoners of war, Secretary of Veterans Affairs Anthony J. Principi announced Saturday that the Bush Administration will expand benefits to all former POWs with strokes and common heart diseases.

“This is an issue that has been studied and debated too long,” Principi said. “We have scientific studies supporting the association of these illnesses to the military service of our former POWs.”

The secretary, who oversees the operations of the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), announced the new benefits in a speech Saturday night at a national convention of the American Ex-Prisoners of War.

Remarks in a Discussion in Mansfield, Ohio

October 2, 2004

The President. Thank you all. Thank you all for coming. Thanks for being here.

Audience members. Four more years! Four more years! Four more years!

The President. Thank you all for coming. I'm proud you're here. Go ahead and be seated. Thank you all. Thanks for coming.

It's great to be here in Mansfield. It's an honor to be back in the State of Ohio. You might have noticed I'm spending some quality time here. [Laughter] And there's a reason. I believe you have to get out amongst the people and ask for the vote, and that's what I'm doing here today. I'm here to say, I'd like your vote. And I'm also here to ask for your help.

Audience member. You got it!

The President. I appreciate it. [Laughter] I want to thank all those who are involved in the grassroots politics here. I know our party chairman is here. I know there's a lot of people putting up the signs and making the phone calls. I know people worked hard to turn out such a great crowd, and I thank you for it.

I'm going to thank you now for what you're going to do, which is to register people to vote. Don't overlook discerning Democrats like Zell Miller when you do so. And then remind people that in our free society, we have an obligation to vote. And then when you get them headed to the polls, tell them if they want a safer America, a stronger America, and a better America, to put me and Dick Cheney back in office.

Audience members. Four more years! Four more years! Four more years!

Former POWs to receive benefits

Posted: Sunday, October 03, 2004

The Associated Press

ARLINGTON - All former U.S. prisoners of war who suffer from heart disease or stroke will receive government health-care benefits without having to prove the ailments were linked to their captivity, Veterans Affairs Secretary Anthony Principi said Saturday night.

He announced the benefits while addressing the annual convention of the American Ex-Prisoners of War, an Arlington-based group with about 21,000 members nationwide.

Former POWs had received coverage if they could prove their heart disease or stroke was caused by depravation and brutality while imprisoned decades ago. But proving that link was difficult despite studies that have shown stress in captivity leads to such diseases, Principi said.

"These are the men and some women who endured the most brutal of hardships in captivity," Principi said. "Their stories are what it means to be an American."

About 20,000 former POWs are expected to receive the new benefits, which will go into effect next week and do not require congressional approval. The benefits will cost at least $26 million the first year and will be absorbed in the veterans' health-care budget, Principi said.

There are 26 million veterans nationwide.

Bush Keeps Up the Debate

The president continues to criticize Kerry for his 'global test' comment. But the senator says he would 'never cede the security' of the U.S.

October 03, 2004 Edwin Chen Times Staff Writer

COLUMBUS, Ohio — President Bush on Saturday continued to portray Sen. John F. Kerry as a man who would relinquish U.S. sovereignty to foreign powers, arguing that under a "Kerry doctrine," the Democratic nominee would seek approval from other countries before taking military action.

"I have a different view," the president said, drawing applause from a supportive crowd of about 2,000 here. "When our country is in danger, the president's job is not to take an international poll. The president's job is to defend America."

Bush was repeating the assertion that he began making Friday, the day after he and the Democratic nominee held their first debate. The president has seized on a comment Kerry made when asked whether he would be willing to launch a preemptive strike, as Bush did in Iraq last year.

Kerry said he would not cede the right to preempt "in any way necessary to protect the United States of America." But he added, "if and when you do it ... you have to do it in a way that passes the test, that passes the global test where your countrymen, your people, understand fully why you're doing what you're doing, and you can prove to the world that you did it for legitimate reasons."

The Republicans said that means Kerry would make U.S. military decisions subject to foreign entities. Bush began using the phrase "Kerry doctrine" while campaigning in Ohio and in a new TV ad released Saturday.

In Washington, Kerry responded to Bush's comments. He said he would "never cede the security of the United States to any nation or any institution," but that he believed the U.S. could be stronger when "we lead allies, and when we do what we need to do with other countries."

Kerry's campaign produced a television ad that said, "George Bush lost the debate. Now he's lying about it."

Creation of the Reichskulturkammer

In September 1933 the Reichskulturkammer (Reich Culture Chamber) was established, with Joseph Goebbels, Hitler's Reichminister für Volksaufklärung und Propaganda (Reich Minister for Public Enlightenment and Propaganda) in charge. Subchambers within the Culture Chamber, representing the individual arts (music, film, literature, architecture, and the visual arts) were created; these were membership groups consisting of "racially pure" artists supportive of the Party, or willing to be compliant. Goebbels made it clear: "In future only those who are members of a chamber are allowed to be productive in our cultural life. Membership is open only to those who fulfill the entrance condition. In this way all unwanted and damaging elements have been excluded."

Ex-POWs to receive new health benefits


The Washington Times

Monday, October 4, 2004

ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — All former U.S. prisoners of war who suffer from heart disease or stroke will receive government health care benefits without having to prove the ailments were linked to their captivity, Veterans Affairs Secretary Anthony J. Principi said Saturday night.

He announced the benefits while addressing the annual convention of the American Ex-Prisoners of War, an Arlington, Texas-based group with about 21,000 members nationwide.

Former POWs had received coverage if they could prove their heart disease or stroke was caused by deprivation and brutality while imprisoned decades ago. But proving that link was difficult despite studies that have shown that stress in captivity leads to such ailments, Mr. Principi said.

John Ray Lemons, an 84-year-old World War II pilot who was shot down in Germany and held captive for a year, has had only partial coverage after two recent heart attacks. But now he plans to file more paperwork.

United States Army Special Operations Command


10th SFG (A) History

The 10th SFG was activated on June 19,1952 at Fort Bragg, N.C., with Col. Aaron Bank in command. Headquarters and Headquarters Company, 10th SFG was activated on 19 May 1952, preceding the activation of the Group proper.

The first class of the Special Forces Course graduated in 1952 and the Group grew to an aggregate strength of 1,700 personnel over the next year. In September 1953, following intensive individual and team training, 782 members of the Group, deployed to Germany and established Group headquarters at Lengries in Bavaria. An additional 99 personnel deployed to Korea where they were assigned to the 8240th Army Unit which was training anti-Communist North Korean partisans (called the United Nations Partisan Forces Korea) on the off-shore islands.

The remaining personnel stayed at Fort Bragg where they formed the core of the 77th Special Forces Group. In 1968, the majority of the Group redeployed to Fort Devens, Massachusetts. The 1st Battalion remained in Germany as part of Special Forces Detachment-Europe, and is currently located at Panzer Kaserne in Stuttgart. Between 1994 and 1995, 10th SFG moved to Fort Carson, Colorado, where three line battalions, 2nd, 3rd and 4th, plus a Group Support Battalion, operate today.

1950s

The group's mission was to conduct partisan warfare behind enemy lines in the event of a Soviet invasion of Europe. The 10th Special Forces Group originally attracted many former members of the OSS, Rangers and Airborne units from World War II

At 99, Green Beret Still Takes On Mission

April 7, 2002 By Tom Berg, Orange County (Calif.) Register

MISSION VIEJO, Calif. -- His mind is fading, his memory is failing and his 99-year-old body -- long a vessel of strength and stamina -- is following.

But this soldier has one more mission in him: to board a plane and fly east this spring to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Army's Special Forces -- the elite commando group that he created and led in 1952.

Only his beefy hands retain the vigor of his past.

Aaron Bank grips a cane with those hands and taps it on the floor as he sits on a couch. "You mean the Special Forces?" he replies when asked whether he feels pride that his creation is now leading the war on terrorism in Afghanistan. "Of course I do. I feel proud about it."

He should.

He is called the Father of the Green Berets -- the name the Special Forces took in 1961.

And he has just been recommended to receive the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the nation's highest civilian honor. "His unit spawned the Green Berets, the Navy SEALs, the Marine Corps' Force Recon and the Army's Delta Force. It's high time he received this recognition," says Rep. Christopher Cox, R-Calif., who requested the award from President Bush last month.

In World War II, Bank worked behind enemy lines for the Office of Strategic Services -- at one point, enlisting the help of more than 200 German prisoners of war to assist in trying to capturing Adolf Hitler.

In 1952, Bank moved to the Pentagon, where he created the model for the Special Forces. Based on his OSS experience, it was designed to operate behind enemy lines, using guerrilla tactics and often working with resistance fighters.

"Some people thought it was insignificant," he says, and the voice of the man known to most as simply "The Colonel" is all breath and no boom. "But it has proven itself."

Now, it is his wife of 54 years, Catherine, 83, who does most of the talking for Bank.

She relays the details of his life: the time he parachuted behind enemy lines to help the French resistance; the time he met a young Ho Chi Min in Vietnam; the time they were dating and he started pursuing a Russian spy in a Jeep chase across Wiesbaden, Germany.

Occasionally she pauses to ask him a fact. He says nothing, or, "I can't remember."

But oh, when he dons his old uniform for a special event, the women of their assisted-living complex swoon.

"The whole building comes out to see him," his wife says. "Some of them run to their rooms to get their cameras."

Until his 75th birthday, he ran several miles a day and swam around the San Clemente pier -- even on days when the lifeguards wouldn't go in. He still rides his stationary bike four days a week.

He was 50 when he took command of the first Special Forces unit at Fort Bragg, N.C., on June 19, 1952.

Bush's 1976 Arrest in Maine Is Revealed


November 03, 2000 MARK Z. BARABAK TIMES POLITICAL WRITER

Responding to reports Thursday


Bush repeatedly questioned the timing of the Maine news reports. "I think that's an interesting question," he told reporters. "Why now? . . . I've got my suspicions."


Before Bush spoke, communications director Karen Hughes addressed the matter standing on the tarmac of Chicago's O'Hare International Airport. Speaking to about 100 reporters, she offered the following account:

She said Bush had several beers on Sept. 4, 1976, when he was stopped by police in Kennebunkport.

Bush back on track after DUI flap

By Peter Nicholas

Knight Ridder Newspapers

Published: Sunday, Nov. 5 2000 12:00 a.m. MST

PHILADELPHIA — The Bush campaign's 757 was grounded briefly in St. Louis as mechanics fixed one of the plane's eight brakes. "There's no stopping us now," joked Bush's communications director, Karen Hughes.

In the span of a few hours, the campaign would snag on something far more serious: Thursday's disclosure of a drunken-driving conviction in Bush's past.

By Saturday, the campaign was back on track. Bush aides believed they had patched the problem quickly and neutralized the damage by aggressively raising questions about Democratic "dirty tricks."
