I am still a proud former Marine, proud of my 13 months of service “in country.”
There it is brother. I wear my service including VN as a badge of honor.
Semper Fi...

I see where you were spit on in the summer of 1969. Surely you aren't blaming Kerry for that, are you?

Many guys took photos in Vietnam -- I would venture to say that most did, from conversations I've had with other vets about that. And as for 8mm movie cameras, the PXs over there sold thousands of them.

And don't believe the Swift Boat Veterans for "truth" lie that Kerry returned to the site where he received the Silver Star and re-enacted anything. He didn't. He took some film of the area right after it happened, but there was no re-enacting. Most of the footage he took in Vietnam was of the scenery -- he was hardly in any of it.

Welcome home.

Doug
