A new, important message: to all us veterans, family members of veterans and patriots who care about our country

Reference: An action plan to spread the truth about living American POWs still held alive in Vietnam and Laos

In one month - just before Memorial Day - An Enormous Crime Definitive Account of American POWs Abandoned in Vietnam and Laos will be published by St. Martins Press.

This book - as Publishers Weekly says - "makes the case that the U.S. knowingly left hundreds of POWs in Vietnam and Laos in 1973, and that every presidential administration since then has covered it up."

Indeed, An Enormous Crime is the definitive proof that our government left hundreds of POWs behind and then covered it up - and the men are still there and still sending signals that say, "Please come rescue me!!!!"

Already the book has rocketed up the charts - it is already Number One on the Amazon.com Vietnam War list - even though it isn't even on the bookshelves yet! All these sales are pre-orders through Amazon.

Our duty as Americans is to force the living POW issue back onto the front pages of our nation's newspapers and back onto the top of the television news. Our comrades in Vietnam and Laos were - and remain - abandoned by a series of corrupt administrations in Washington - and the cover-up is still ongoing!

With the 2008 election already underway - and the country in the middle of yet another war where our troops are treated badly, used as PR props for political candidates and then cast aside when they come home - it is time for the truth about our living POWs to finally be put front and center for every American to see.

Why?

Because only by exposing the truth about the abandonment and cover-up of our Vietnam War POWs can we expose the perfidy and corruption of our government - and then begin to correct these mistakes.

An Enormous Crime is indeed the book that can break open the truth about the POW issue. It is based on 66,000 pages of never-before-published US Government documents which prove that the highest levels of our government - from the Oval Office on down - have known all along that our POWs have been held alive against their will by the Vietnamese and Pathet Lao.

What can you do to help our POWs?

Here is an Action Plan for every US Veteran, every American Legion Post, every VFW Post and for all patriotic citizens who care about our men abandoned in SE Asia:

• Pre-order An Enormous Crime through Amazon.com so that the book rises higher and higher on their Best Sellers List - and that will make the Media pay attention to the book and the Living POW issue. Here is the link to pre-order the book: Amazon.com.

• Buy a copy of An Enormous Crime for your Legion or VFW Post.

• Buy a copy of An Enormous Crime for every building which flies the POW flag. Buy it and go into that building - a post office, government building or court house - and present them with the book that explains why the POWs exist in the first place!

• Buy a copy of An Enormous Crime for your Congressman - and give it to him/her and ask that they read it, not pawn it off to some staffer.

• Buy a copy of An Enormous Crime for your US Senator - and give it to him/her.

• Buy a copy of An Enormous Crime and bring it to your local Memorial Day parade or celebration. Tell everyone there about the book - and urge them to buy it, to read it and to spread the word about our men still held against their will in Laos and Vietnam.

• Buy a copy of An Enormous Crime for your local library.

• Buy a cope of An Enormous Crime for your school library - and take it there and show it to the librarian.

• Forward this email to any and everyone you know - especially to veterans, American Legion members, VFW members and Vietnam vets.

• Pray - as a community of veterans, patriots and POW activists - for the successful return of all our POWs.

• We have a duty - for our country and for these men left behind by a callous and criminal government - to expose our arrogant government officials - liars like McCain, Kerry, Kissinger, former CIA Director and former President George "Sit Down and Shut Up!" Bush.

• Let us make one last push to get our POWs home - alive - now - beginning on Memorial Day when this book comes out.

The Pentagon is still receiving new, up-to-date, credible reports of sightings of US POWs this year! (Of course, they're hiding those reports from the public.)

So we owe it to these brave American heroes to make one more concerted effort to get them home.

The POWs need our help - so it is up to us to do whatever we can do to help get this issue back on the front pages and back in the news.

Please help our brothers!

Sincerely,
Former Congressman John LeBoutillier
