I'm a little torn on the issue.

The wreckage of the B-52 is there and has been turned into somewhat of a tourist attraction.

Is it better to be seen and noted - or never seen and forgotten?

A lot of VN vets are returning to VN in their twilight years and they tend to go to places like that.

Besides - the US has hauled all kinds of War Trophies back from all over the world. Some of those armored vehicles had their crews killed in them.

Indeed.

We are collectively better for remembering with accuracy. It is only liberals who need to rewrite history to match their commentary.

Conservatives remember and use the real lessons of real conflict.
