I've always defended the RC concerning the charges of selling coffee and donuts to GI's. There have been rumors of that since WWII, Korea and Vietnam. My only coffee line with them had a can that was clearly marked Donations, and nobody was obligated to give. Nobody I ever met claimed that he (in the old days, soldiers were he's) had to give money for the coffee. I've always regarded the charge as urban legend.
Also, on the bright side, 2 men I knew in Vietnam received compassionate reassignments back to the States due in part to the RC's efforts.
That being said, my feelings now are: They used to be good and now they suck.
I used to defend them, too, because of a day care school they ran in Belize (Central America). But this is way over the top. I am more than furious! Those poor disappointed kids. It's inexcusable.
Thanks for your input jackliberty.
