Kinda puts my 19 months on the ground in Viet Nam as an Army officer in perspective. But then, I only got one Purple Heart, two Bronze Stars for Valor, and five Air Medals...and I requested the six month extension. Silly me...should have known better.
Oh yeah, I forgot to mentioned that I volunteered for Viet Nam, believing that it was my place of duty as a career officer.
Bless you for your service! There are not enough thanks for your service.
Thank you for your brave service.
