Did anybody see the Memorial Day Concert from Washington D.C.? The letters that were read by the actors had me sobbing. I still can't think about them without tearing up. Undying praise and thanks to all of you Vets and families that sacrified so much for the rest of us.

We have all kinds of vets around here: Bucko - the Sandbox Caper (a.k.a. Gulf War); I - the Vietnam War (lost by the pols); hotsy - WWII; and ww - the Spanish-American War.

Just 'Nam for me.
Haven't figured out who lost the damned thing.... just know it wasn't the troops.

Like I said it was the pols as in politicians.
- hotwine - 05-30-2006
Yeah, I know, IK.... but which ones? Thought for a long time it was Nixon caving in to the left; but now looks more like Kissinger. The "truth will out" eventually.

or maybe just new versions of the same truth told from different points of veiw. I think bush is responsable for nam..had to be him.
