    Apparently, he embellished a lot of his war stories and no evidence supporting his claims can be found, while there is direct evidence that contradicts his accounts.

        Some stuff is true, some might be exaggerated and/or deliberately vague. But we don’t know for sure and likely never will.

        We know as an actor he had a flair for dramatics, so it wouldn’t surprise me if he spiced up some stuff here and there juuuust a little.

          The Daily Mail‘s Guy Walters finds this account to be dubious.

          I think it’s fair to say this source can be thrown in the bin.

          I believe that’s called a “Brian Williams”.

        Well, apparently the person you responded to exaggerates a lot of their comments and has no source to support them, while there are direct responses to them that disagree (also with no source).

          Forgive me for sleeping… Someone sniped me and posted sources here, but go off.

            Dissing you because you didn’t replay within an hour is really ignorant anyway. You don’t have to apologise for having a real life.
