Thank you for your continued support for all of us.
And thank you for personally risking your life by coming to Viet Nam
with Bob Hope on 2 different Christams tours to show support for us while so many at home scorned us.

oh my dear friend, thank you for posting the POW graphic. That makes it perfect. You always know just what something needs. I am so grateful. Thanks again.
Welcome Home.

[Snow Bunny]

I am not sure exactly who said it. I am so sorry. I wish I did so I could post it with the quote. Perhaps someone will tell us on here.

Thank you for serving and Welcome Home.

[Snow Bunny]

You served this counrty and I am so very proud to know you. What I did was hardly anything but the memories I have I cherish always. I will never forget the faces, the touch of the hands and hugs and the lives that touched my heart. God Bless you my friend.

"What I did was hardly anything"

Read the book. Don't see how they can make a movie on the real thing. No one frags anyone. No one does any drugs. No blacks against whites. No women flying rescue missions. Just a bunch of men getting into one hell of a fight with North Vietnam Regulars not insurrectionists as we were constantly reminded by Hanoi Jane, Joan Baez, Pete Seegar, Tom Hayden and their fellow travelers.

Look forward to ALOHA RONNIE'S review.

Thanks for posting this... and thanks to the men who served. America needs to remember her servicemen and treat them a little better.

We Were Soldiers

One day in the fall of '70, Rick Jason, the LT from the television program "Combat" stopped by to have lunch in Kontum. That night, sitting out on guard duty with some friends, someone mentioned the program. It seemed to us, that "Combat" showed all these big fully grown men. Then someone said; 'we're just kids...' The silence then became deafening.

ALOHA RONNIE will give us the best review we could ever get.
I hope when it finally does come out, he has a whole thread with his review of the film...
pssst ALOHA RONNIE.... just a hint, pretty please.

[Snow Bunny]

I agree with you backhoe. Our servicemen and women from all the wars should be treated first class all the way.
100% FREE medical and no co pay like they are trying to do and doing it now.OH soooo many things. Thanks for your post.

[Snow Bunny]

Thank you for sharing that on here.What you wrote says so much. Thank you.

In Honor of those who gave their lives and those who were gravely disabled.
Thank You Brothers and Sisters for your sacrifices.
