NEVER FORGET


Your wish is my commnand.

'The MANSIONS of the Lord' stirring hymn from "WE WERE SOLDIERS" is now being sung at funeral services for our blessed killed in action returning fron Iraq & Afghanistan.

Despict CBS Television Network's editing it out of its "WE WERE SOLDIERS" airing last Sunday night.

Very disheartening, but not surprising, to read that. I taped the airing, while I watched the Memorial Day Concert in DC on another channel, delighted that CBS was showing it, but my old VCR did not cooperate and the tape got ruined.

I will never forget, and there are more Americans of our age who will never forget, than who still think fighting to save Vietnam was wrong. Unfortunately, many of those who are in media jobs are in the latter group. We are invisible to them, but we vote. And when they (the media) are surprised by the results, they "feel" that we cheated, because they believe we are not really a large number. I believe that we are a solid majority in America.
