I hear them calling in the night
When my world is calm and quiet.

They speak to me in words I would not hear,
Yet their voices won't be silenced.

They beseech me with whispers.
Asking, 'why were we left?

They cannot understand.
The wind carries their questions.
The stars shine down as tears.
The moon becomes their faces.

And I have no answer worth speaking.

(c)1998 - Dennis Johnson

There are over 2000 American heroes, dead and alive, who haven't been brought home yet !

Since the war ended, over 10,000 reports received relating to Americans still unaccounted for in Indochina have convinced experts that hundreds of men are still alive, waiting for their country to rescue them. The notion that Americans are dying without hope in the hands of a long-ago enemy belies the idea that we left Vietnam with honor. It also signals that tens of thousands of lost lives were a frivolous waste of our best men.

I have many friends who served in Vietnam.Many that died there, many that died after they came home from Agent Orange.
I want to thank you ALL that served in Vietnam and ALL the Wars.

I pray each day for our POW’s and MIA’s that they will be brought home.

Thank you my Heroes for serving our land and for my Freedom, I owe you a GREAT debt.

THANK YOU Veterans from ALL our Wars !!!! You are my Warrior Heroes one and all !

"First, if one of them was found, Vietnam would be held accountable by the American people...that isn't going to happen."

In Oct 2001 Viet Nam trade restrictions were lifted by the House and Senate and President Bush.
Instead of demanding a FULL accounting of POW/MIA's Viet Nam was given a "free pass" to trade with us.
Even though none may still be alive we owe it to at least let their next of kin know their fate.

Hmmm.....makes who wonder who is on whose side. This does not sound any better to me then when Clinton attempted to do the same thing. Thanks to all of those who never forgot and never gave up. :)

I don't think that I would be flying the American flag every day if it was my son that
Congress had abandoned over there.

Just a guess...but maybe they've been quietly living the WHOLE of that famous old
slogan that got thrown around in the 1960s:

"My country, right or wrong!"
(and usually left out was the rest of the historical quote)
"And when in the wrong, to be put right!"

Sadly, there will probably be things about what happened in Vietnam that will
never be put right.

Thank you Snow Bunny for remembering the Pows. I still have my POW bracelet that I wore for a few years. I will never forget the thrill of watching him get off that plane when some of them came home years ago!
I lost childhood friends in Nam, and have two dear friends who will never be the same. They have post traumatic stress syndrome after both served in Da Nang at a station hospital. Saw too much there.
I pray that our guys left behind are still alive, and they know that there are still many who think of them.
