I didn’t volunteer. ..God I hated the Left in those days...
I guess I was pretty well programmed to join the military. A long ago Cousin in the Army in WWI was killed in the Meuse Argonne offensive. My Dad was in the South Pacific till 1945. His twin brother was a waist gunner on an 8th AF B17, a Cousin served in Korea 1952. Everyone in the family went into the military. Seems like everybody my age I knew went to Viet Nam. They bitsched about it, but they went.
So, I just did it.
Well, with that history you’ve tipped us all off that your surname is not Romney or Sununu!
Good for you. I respect those who did a great deal. I don’t think there’s a more ardent supporter of the Vietnam Vet than myself.
When the Left was spitting on them, honestly, I wanted to shoot anyone doing it.
You can’t do that, but it infuriated me.
