Thanks for your service.

I did two tours of combat duty in Vietnam.

I'm glad to see us win one.

Thanks for your service! You guys had it hard, coming back to a country that just did not give a damn.

My unit came back and we were met by a big crowd with party stuff and tons of food -- some family members but mostly people we didn't know at all. A sweet little old lady gave me an American flag and a hug (for some reason all the hot young chicks were chasing down the younger guys...!)

Total contrast from the reception that all my sergeants in the early part of my career told me they got after Vietnam.

d.o.l.
