By the end of 2009, only about 30% of all Vietnam War veterans were still alive.

Total, utter bullshit. Try 90%, you liar.

Why, Hello pabianice, long time no see.

Yeah, it shocked me too. Do you keep up with the guys you served with? I served on the USS Intrepid. I was in OS Div, with 15 guys, including the Cheif. There’s two of us left, and two we can’t find.

I figure the Cheif was 38, and the 1st classes were about 27, 28. Everyone else was younger than me. Ten of them are dead, and I’m on short-time.

You?

I'm at least 50% alive.
