Funny you mention that. I was just watching Ollie Norths War Stories and they are profiling the battle of Kha Sanh.

On another thread a few weeks ago I mentioned the movie that I had just seen on TV with Mel Gibson "We Were Soldiers" the story of Hal Moore in Vietnam. That was a battle!! There is a FReeper named Aloha Ronnie who was there, he has a website dedicated to that battle. It was very interesting, I haven't been able to watch too many movies about Vietnam because so many guys I went to high school with were killed or injured there, that I get too emotional. Actually a small version of the wall came through here last week and I was finally able to see it. I've never had the privilege of going to DC to see all the wonderful historical places and memorials.

I think we have a cosmic connection. I, too, was just watching War Stories. Also had many friends lost or injured in Viet Nam. (This shows our age, LOL) As much as I love and respect President Bush, they are really trying to disavow the connection between this war and 'Nam. They need to let the Generals handle it. Just my opinion, for what it's worth.
