.My conclusion is you are closed to rational analysis of this subject, but it is just a theory.

Not at all. Its my philosophy degree. Too much symbolic logic, I guess. Anyway, I do admire and thank you for your service as a Navy linguist.

Actually, they made me an officer before I got out of training and sent me to Nam on a destroyer. ;-) So I accept your thanks for being a combat vet in lieu of something I never really did.

It really is nice that people are starting to appreciate Nam vets, finally. It was a nasty war. If we were taking casualties like that now, can you imagine the caterwauling?
