the tapes are too cheap to discuss and media mail is almost free, so consider it a birthday gift and don't even offer to reimburse me.
we do forget. tonight i watched a 2 hours special on vietnam, on one of the off the wall channels.
i go to the va 4 or 5 times a year and see the guys in their 50's or 60's that are vietnam vets. the physical pain and suffering they endured is obvious, but the mental anguish that still haunts them after 35 or 40 years is not as noticeable. i have a friend that did 3 tours and he has been affected. my uncle served in some army entertainment groups and they entertained the guys before they left for normandy. i remember he spent years taking kleenex out of a box and ripping it into shreds and repeating the same thing over and over.
i have heard people mention being spit on and called baby killers. i do not understand that. these guys that i know and see are still paying the price for the vietnam war. most of them were fresh out of high school, babies really. they did their time in the service and that makes them special. for anyone to think of them in a negative way, is mean, stupid, and totally insensitive to these guys.
