Paul, I hope that is a statement about the past, and not what we as Americans feel today.... You know some of my history. But in 1966, I was nine years old, and more concerned with getting a banana seat and chopper bars for my bike... I cannot fathom how you and your comrades dealt with arriving home in uniform and getting the disrespectful treatment you received. Nor can I accept the lack of follow up by the military for our troops currently being brought home and being expected to reassume their civilian roles without help. Wayne, my thoughts are with you and all who lost and are losing comrades, family members. I am off to the local cemeteries to pay my respects ahead of the services this morning.
