To: I'm ALL Right!
Dear Mr. Kerry.

You go to Vietnam with your video camera and spent 4 monthes there and receive 3 Purple Hearts, 1 Silver Star and 1 Bronze Star. Wow, that must be some kind of record. By the way, it is usually not a good thing to earn a Purple Heart, most Vets try not to get those. Meanwhile, you come back to the states, testify for some committee and tell them that you committed war crimes and you knew that other Vietnam Vets did the same thing. At some point and time you take your medals or ribbons and chuck them over some wall in protest against the war.
Meanwhile other Vietnam Vets are coming home, most without being recognized for their achievements and risking their life in Vietnam. Only to be greeted at the airport by Anti-war protesters calling them "baby killer" and throwing feces at them.
Gee, no wonder they don't like you. Maybe if you knew a Vietnam Vet you would understand why you cashing in on your Vietnam vacation would upset them.
