After I got out of the Army in 1973, I did not want to put my military service on my job applications. Thats how bad it was. And no single person was more responsible for that than John Kerry.
Although I didnt go that far, figuring I should at least explain what I was doing between 1971 and 1975, I know exactly what you mean.
I was bitter about Viet Nam for years. Joining the Swift Boat Site in the summer of 2004 was one of the best things I ever did. Not only did it shake me out of that funk, it also led to me finding this site!.
To all of you Nam Vets; my heart felt thanks for your service. And I am proud to frequent FR with you.
