There's a scene in No Country for Old Men that is pro-vet, when Josh Brolin attempts to get back across the border wearing only hospital clothes and runs into a border officer who is a fellow Vietnam vet. Brolin correctly gives the information requested and is admitted and aided.

Only one of the good things about this movie.

i, too, hope that he did find PEACE!

i will pray for him/his loved ones.

"I have nothing but respect and true love for the Vietnam War vets. Thank you so much for serving our country then.I just wish our country had served you better."

Ditto, and Amen! Vietnam Vets have a special place in my heart, although I have the deepest respect, love, and appreciation for all of our veterans and for all of those who serve.

[stand watie]

see #82. may i suggest that you also pray for our compatriot & his family.

i believe PRAYER WORKS.

[LucyJo]

Yes, prayers Mary...I’m so sorry about your brother. May it comfort you, and your family to know that others care.

We may not have known your brother personally, and may never know your family, but we love you, and thank you all for the sacrifices made on our behalf. God bless.

Same to you, SW, and for all of our veterans. Welcome home, and thank you all from the bottom of my heart.

[stand watie]

THANK YOU!

fyi, i also pinged "Mountain Flower", our GOE Prayer Warrior, on behalf of Mary's family & our departed brother-in-arms. (i know not whether my prayers are heard/answered, but i believe Mountain Flower's are.)

the night before GOE I, she asked me what i wanted her to do as a GOE Marshal (as she was NOT a LEO/combat vet & had come all the way from SD to help). i said, "Pray HARD for all of us not to have blood running in the streets of DC", which is precisely what i expected. we had NO serious violence & only one serious incident (a WWII vet who fell down a flight of stairs).

as a result of Flower's efforts on our behalf, she was voted an "honorary RVN VET" by acclimation of all the Marshals.

expect a miracle.

They don’t support out troops...they USE the troops as political pawns...disgraceful

[bigheadfred]

Watch out for the line “I don’t have anything, just S.O.P stuff”—only to find out that this means small kills teams, baiting civilians into a sniper trap—de facto unit policy.

Just got around to reading this

Just keeps getting harder and harder to walk through life with the slime spreading everywhere.

Thanks for the ping, RR.

Thank you! and PING

[Doctor Raoul]

Late 60's I was early teens. They missed me.

But I did have a hippie spit at me September 15th in DC while I heckled their march with a half mile hailer. He missed me.

BUMP !!!

‘The irony is that leftists of all stripes are the real “babykillers.” After all, they have been killing American babies since 1973.’

BINGO !! But the left wing media and politicians don’t seem to have the intellect to connect the dots.

[4integrity]

stand watie, God bless you and thank you for your service to our great country!

[4integrity]

Doctor Raoul, thank you for this alert and for all you do to support our military and our country. God bless you.

[stand watie]

EXACTLY!!!

"He missed me" ====> that's a GOOD thing. no telling what sort of STRANGE/longtime/UNtreatble/exotic disease you might have "picked up" had he HIT you.

THANK YOU.

my Army service was "nothing special". i was just a "plain vanilla" IN & MP guy.

i was, however, HONORED though to KNOW a LOT of hero-martyrs, who DESERVED public acclaim like:

1LT Joe March, who was with COL Merrill in WWII (too many medals from several nations to count = fwiw, in the mid-80s he & i went to a fancy cocktail party @ Ft Meade OOM, where the invitation said "mess or dress blue uniform with all decorations. = Joe didn't have enough room on his chest for HIS!),

MG Cook, CG 29th IN Div (LT) (hero of WWII/Korea/RVN),

MG Haley G. Maddox, who was with GEN Patton (3rd Army), who was Commandant of Cadets in my "military school days/DAZE",

CPT Roger Donlon, MoH (who taught our class when i was at USAIS),

SSG Fred Shue (who gave new meaning to the word SNIPER!!! Fred spent MANY days "behind the lines".),

PO3 Wayne Thomas Bankhead (acting CPO & carpenter's mate, USS Champion, WWII & my uncle)

LCPL Cloyde Pinson, KIA RVN (my prep school roomie!)

and a host of others, both living & "promoted to Glory".
