I am with you. I have chosen to remember that Ronald Reagan said, “ours (mine in Vietnam) was a noble cause. A small country (including ethnic Chinese, Catholic Vietnamese, and others fleeing Communism) newly free from colonial rule sought our help in establishing self-rule and the means of self-defense against a totalitarian neighbor (Tonkinese) bent on conquest. He said that to consider it otherwise dishonored the memory of over 58,000 who died in the cause.
Thank you for bringing that to mind. What a great man he was.
