Neither my mother, or father or brother (older) ever knew I went to Viet Nam UNTIL after I came back.
Tonkin, how did you manage to keep that one to yourself???
I'll never complain again about my brothers traveling and not telling me where they are.

Things were different then.
The anti war crowd in Chicago was ruthless.
Fueled by the likes of the Chicago 7.
We left in Aug '68, right after the Democratic convention.
There was no "Welcoming the Troops Home" back then.
We all just came back and tried to forget.
And here it is 2005 and Hanoi Jane will be on the airwaves, again, starting on 60 Minutes on Apr 3
And the "Move On" FReepers will do just that.
Ain't life grand.

(Be wary of the "Move On " FReepers. They want to give Hanoi Kerry a free pass? mmmm WHY?)
