Forty years later and the bastards are still hard at work undermining and denigrating the work we did in 'Nam.
For any posters who are not old enough to remember the Vietnam War, it was an honorable cause and we prevailed in every major engagement in the field. When I left in August 1969, we had the situation well in hand.
Plenty of villains in the piece, notably Sen. Half-bright from AK, Kerry, Jane Fonda, and the "most trusted man in America" Walter Cronkite. They and many others laid the groundwork for the Fall of Vietnam.
Sorry for the rant. Yes, I'm still bitter and probably will go to my grave bitter. Just know this: The Soldiers, Sailors, Marines, Airmen and Coast Guardsmen who fought in the Vietnam War were patriots who acted with the zeal,professionalism and valor America has come to expect from its Military. We have nothing to be ashamed of. I'm damned proud to be a combat veteran of the Vietnam War.
Nos genuflectitur ad non princeps sed Princeps Pacem!
Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)
