I had the same experience as you Calpernia. I graduated from high school around the same time as you did. I didn't know much about the Vietnam war when I graduated. I did know this: always have respect for our men and women in the military. BUT this I learned from my parents.

My Dad wanted to serve- he was ROTC and very proud of that. He marched with the world famous Purdue ROTC.

My Grandparents were Veterans. My Dad was refused and could not serve for medical reasons- and he was disappointed ( I think he has some guilt as well)

Nevertheless What I learned about Vietnam I learned from my family and from reading as an adult.

I may not know much- but this I do know: Folks like Hilary and John Kerry are enemies to my country for the way they have lied about what was going on in Vietnam. I will never forget that or forgive them for the damage they have done to our military heroes and to the citizens of the USA.

Thanks Ronnie.

Oh thank you Diva! It is hard to come forward and say, "I don't know". Thank you for standing at my side :)

I wish more adults would take the time you did and as I'm doing to learn our history. That apparantly has been allowed to be take from us by our school systems.

Again I ask...
In an new Time of War...
In a new Century...
With an Enemy that's now...
Just around the corner and...
Up your street...
With our own Freedom...
Now directly at stake...
Here at home...
