This academic, like John Kerry, continues the lies and dishonours brave soldiers. to do that is not just political drival....To do that is a crime against the soul. Call me, Dr. LLewellyn. I'd be glad to "communicate" with you.

Thank you for your wonderful post. For sure that is not just political drivel, it is INDEED a crime against the soul. Many vets are starting to feel some relief from the scourge of Kerry, hopefully many will be able to seek and receive the thing they need the most: a warm welcome from the American public and recognition of their sacrifices.

Oh yeah, Dr. LLewellyn: You can kiss this veteran's rosey red ass!

In VN, most of the Vietnamese were nice, some weren't so nice, some were VC. Arriving back in the world, glad to be coming home, stepping off the Freedom Bird, we were briefed to report quickly to our processing centers. We were told to not react to protesters.

Before I'd left for overseas, waiting in an airport bar, someone I'd never met bought me a beer and wished me well. When I returned after 2 yrs & 4 mos, I found a few were nice, most were indifferent or not very nice and some were F***ing vicious nuts.

LLewellyn, the writer of the article above, hasn't a clue.
