Loved reading those e-mails from the troops. I can sympathize with Mark A..
The girl I was dating at the time waited until about 8 months into my first tour in Vietnam to "Dear John" me.
All I can say is life goes on and I ended up with a better woman in the end.

That had to be hard when it happened. That is the worst timing in the world.

You are right though too that you met the better person later on. ( big smile)

Sorry you had a lot at work today.Glad you can play now giggle

The old Cherokee chief sat in his reservation hut, smoking the ceremonial pipe, eyeing the two US government officials sent to interview him.

"Chief Two Eagles," one official began, "you have observed the white man for many generations, you have seen his wars and his products, you have seen all his progress, and all his problems."

The chief nodded.

The official continued, "Considering recent events, in your opinion, where has the white man gone wrong?"

The chief stared at the government officials for over a minute, and then calmly replied:

"When white man found this land, Indians were running it. No taxes. No debt. Plenty buffalo. Plenty beaver. Women did most of the work. Medicine man free. Indian men hunted and fished all the time."

The chief smiled, and added quietly, "White man dumb enough to think he could improve system like that."
