I, too, blame him for helping to destroy the morale of many a fine Soldier, Sailor, Marine, Airman and Guardsman. One was the valedictorian of my high school who died as a young Marine lieutenant leading his platoon exactly one month to the day after arriving in DaNang. But I suppose he had his good points, like in '69 when we landed on the moon...and suppose we have to remember that we're better than the DU and KOS crowd (which hooted and cheered the death of Tony Snow) so, instead of RIH (rot in hell) I have to say RIP Walter.
FWIW : Our “Morale” was just fine,,,
WALTER CRONKITE killed the morale of America,,,
When I came home in ‘68 everybody was saying that
“WALTER CRONKITE said we lost”,,,
“We saw it on TV”!!!
WALTER LIED AND G.I.’s Died!!!...
