Thank you for your exemplary service, Shipmate! I’m sorry for the losses you endured.
Thank You for sharing this harrowing story with us tonight, Conor.
We must never forget.
A guy I used to work with was a Marine who was in Hue in ‘68.He didn’t talk much about it (at least not to me) but what little he did say still gives me the horrors.I personally think he has PTSD (or something resembling it) because he sure had a temper on him.Given what he saw I suppose he’s entitled to his “weaknesses” (assuming that my “diagnosis” is correct) because I sincerely doubt that I would have covered myself in glory in a similar situation....or thereafter.
