The passing of Jeremiah Denton, Vietnam POW and US Senator

Sad news, kiddos. When we watched Dear America: Letters Home from Vietnam, you were introduced to a heroic man named Jeremiah Denton. He was the brave patriot who was held as a POW for almost 8 years in Vietnam (remember his own teenage son grew up, served in Vietnam, and returned to the US during his dad's captivity). He just died :( Rest in peace, sir.

Below I have a link for the news release on his death. I also posted a short 5 mins clip on Mr. Denton's captivity.
