I am a twenty year Air Force vet(1970-1990). My first tour of duty was in Vietnam(Nov 70-Nov 71). Am now working for the US Army in Seoul, Korea. Have been in/around the US military my entire adult life. Am a lifelong Republican and an admirer of Ronald Reagan. I named my second son Ronald as he was born on February 6, 1984.
I, like so many of my fellow vets, experienced the trauma(probably more) after returning from Vietnam than while serving. John Kerry was traitorous during and following the Vietnam war. He has never recanted his activities and today chooses to depict himself as "war hero".
I am not very internet savvy, but thoroughly enjoy this site and most of the opinions expressed here.
