Glenn Beck, aka, "a sick freak" posted a Memorial Day Essay (audio) written especially for Vietnam veterans. He made my "tough" Vietnam veteran hubby cry.
Below is the text that I typed with hubby's help for those of you with slow connection. I type pretty fast, but couldn't keep up with Glenn's audio, so hubby would play some and pause while I catch up, etc. Of course the text doesn't convey the emotion, but at least, you can read it.
Please excuse any mistakes or typo's. OH, and Glenn? Please don't sue me? You said it was free for all veterans, especially Vietnam veterans, right?

We went to The Wall several years ago. It WAS overwhelming. I can't even begin to describe how it felt to look up and down the wall and see all those names.
May God Bless them all and their families.

I just checked out your homepage. What beautiful daughters and grand children you have! Please thank your son-in-law for us for his service.
Your FReeping photos are great. (I'm jealous.)

I could have sworn this was posted here in 2000 (or maybe 1999).

I did a search before I posted and didn't see an article. I just heard about it on Glenn's show yesterday. ? ?

I heard it yesterday, and thought to myself, "is Beck a FReeper." I pinged two people who were on that thread way back then (had a picture of The Wall, with soldiers looking out from the other side of the Wall to their loved ones).

I wonder if Beck is a FReeper too.
I bet that thread was awesome; I wasn't here yet, so I missed it, you old timer. I have a picture called "Reflection," which sounds like what you are talking about.

That might be the picture, and I believe that
Reflections was the name of the essay.
Did Beck give attributes for the essay?

Don't be. I could be wrong, although I don't think so. More confirmation will be forthcoming.
