LOL, its SF. I wear my Army Retired hat, and I get some of the worst looks. I need a T shirt that says, “We didn’t kill babies deliberately, like they do here.” I know it would be considered offensive, but the same people didn’t think it was in the late 60’s, when our guys arrived home.

Thank you for your service. Dad came back from 'Nam, wasn't harrased. I asked why, he showed me his combat knife and said if anyone came up to him in the airport and pulled that shit on him, he'd have killed him.

Remembering how p.o.ed dad was the first two years after coming back from Vietnam, I'm not surprised anybody would've wanted to try anything with him.

From another retiree (AF) about the way people treated us:

Ugly doesn’t need a time, only a place.
