It’s the holding pistols in a horizontal plane in all the movies that always impressed me.

I’m sorry, mainly for them, but they have now thrown away 3 generations.

First tour in RVN, 66-67 Black soldiers worked very hard to prove they were “as good as anybody,” and they were!

2d tour in RVN, 69-71, after Dr. King killed, let me simply say, it was completely different.

Sorry if some think that comment is racist, but it is also fact.

Say what you mean then, if you aren’t ashamed.

And if you are ashamed, then maybe you shouldn’t be saying it.

Did the attitude of the White soldiers likewise change between 66-67 and 69-71? Were they, e.g., less patriotic or more rebellious?
