Retired Army Col. David Hackworth, one of the most decorated veterans in U.S. history who became a vocal advocate for military reform, died yesterday in Mexico at 74.
Hackworth returned from Vietnam as a strong critic of the war, later becoming a journalist and author of several best-selling books.
He had written a weekly column for WorldNetDaily for seven years.
Hackworth was in Mexico for treatments of bladder cancer, which he had battled for some time.
I agree with Michelle Malkin on what she said about him. I liked him years ago, but lately he’d gone too far over to the dark liberal side. Either way, my heart goes to his family
