You don't know WTF you're talking about or whom you are talking to. My husband did three tours in VietNam

OK, so, your married to a guy that served three tours in Nam. This gives you special status? BWHAHAHAHAH

Cleland started it when he sneered at everyone that ever served in the National Guard as weekend warriors. There are 6000 names of men that served in the Guard on that Wall in D.C.

Thank you.

And thank the men of the Guard that gave everything for their country in Vietnam.

And annyokie - we thank your husband for his three tours over there, too.

I'm going to be one of those here that makes sure that our returning veterans of Iraq are treated with the respect due to those who went in harm's way in this newest of world wars. You can put that in the bank.

Are you saying that 6,000 National Guardsmen died in Vietnam? If so, I believe you are wrong. My understanding is only 6,000 NG members ever served in Vietnam. The number of them kill was 100.
