Thank you for the informative comment. I was quite young at the end of the Vietnam War so I take my history from those who have served and I doubt I will ever feel I have learned enough when I meet the creator.
I have gone back and fourth on Galloway as I did regarding Hack (RIP), that as great a soldiers they both were, they seemed to turn on the current amazing men and women serving, with their critical eye on the war in Iraq.
It would be wonderful if there were a voice that folks knew and respected, that gave a voice to the many, who frankly, by sheer luck of Kerry's platform for President, that folks like the Swiftee's got their voices heard and in turn those who served during Vietnam.
It is an observation only and it might be misguided but my heart is in the right place.
Tonk and I do exchange PINGS, I did not know there was Vet PING list so to speak but am happy to help. I am grateful that you found the article of interest Nam Vet.
I think my negative feelings are mostly about the MSM and American people toward us when I returned. I see the same tides flowing and it turns my stomach. The only thing different is that the leftists (read socialists) don't have the 'gonads'* to turn on the troops in total. All they can do is pick at the edges of a few overblown "outrages".
