It is hard for younger generations to understand how violated and abused veterans felt, and still feel today. It took the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth to remind everyone that many of us have not forgotten, nor will we.

Thank you.

I have yet to find anyone under the age of 40 who doesn't confuse or conflate Vietnam with War-II, let alone Korea. Hell, I cain't hardly find anyone who can find it on a map.

To paraphrase another of my generation, if our current K through 12 education system were forced on us by an outside country, it would be considered an act of war.

Probably, by the French.

Sigh...
