Why didn’t they let john f’n kerry announce this.
He served in Vietnam ya know. Forty years is a long time.
Kerry was in country four months then bailed with three skingraze Purple Hearts. Until 2004 I never heard of such a thing.
I did my year 1971-72. Wasn’t wounded but I knew guys who were and continued to serve.
Anyway, I feel much more honored by a state holiday recognition than anything out of this WH.
