"Shrapnel in left arm above elbow. Shrapnel removed and appl bacitracin dressing. Ret to Duty."
Really? Return to Duty? Wow... that sure doesn't sound much like WAR HERO material to me. My brother came home in a body cast from Vietnam from the chest down to his ankles. Now, THATs an injury. He was shredded with shrapnel. It still didn't keep him down. He healed, became an active Police Seargent and finished college and makes a great living now. He can't STAND Kerry!

Your brother has earned our deepest respect.
Kerry has earned our scoffing.

Bless your brother. He honored us all with his service to his country and his dedication to duty upon his return from the service.
