Welcome Home Soldiers.

Their helicopter was shot down on March 20, 1971, the office said in a statement.

This was so long ago, it has been my whole life's history. I was in my mother's womb at this time.

I am thankful that they fought for the freedom that I have enjoyed my entire life.

One of my high school and college friends was shot down over there in a helicopter. He was an only child.

You may appreciate the link at 17. I'm a leadpenny so I have to remind myself that me looking at the history of WWII is something akin to you looking at the Vietnam War.
