Hubby and I watched Vietnam in HD last night and the battle at Hamburger Hill, Hill 937. A good friend of ours was killed there on his first week in Nam,just a week before my hubby got to Nam.
Did not seem very happy for those who gave all.
We know a lot of people on that Memorial wall.
Bought a new beautiful Stars and Stripes flag this year, Hang it always and so proud to have this freedom that all those gave.
Am an immigrant from Canada and a citizen of this country, have been here 52 years and love this country so much, cry at the National Anthem.
God Bless America!!!!!
MAGA!!!
2 Marine sons also.
Remember and observe on Memorial Day.
I spent 11 months in that valley (A Shau), interesting name for our camp there, call sign Destiny.
When younger kid was in middle school she took a trip to DC and was able to get a pencil rubbing of my dad’s best friend’s name on “the wall”. Had to stand on her teacher’s shoulders to reach up high enough. She fancied it up in a nice shadow box display and gave it to him on his birthday. Such a touching moment.
