Well, Col. Hackworth, you can denigrate the service of those who served in the Air National Guard if you want but I choose to honor them for their service.

Who is he to say those in the Guard didn't serve during Vietnam???!!!

My tour at Tuy Hoa AFB RVN saw several Air Guard squadrons of F-100 aicraft flown & maintained by guardsmen from Niagra Falls, New York and units from New Mexico.I worked along side these fine airmen. Hackworth is a POS. He slanders all Vetnam vets if he takes Kerry's postion.

If memory is correct--didn't Bush sign a paper saying he was willing to go to Viet Nam? They didn't use him because he was flying a plane that wasn't needed at that time. But, he did volunteer to go--doesn't that mean anything? Maybe I am rememebring this wrong.
