| The worst thing that can happen to a veteran is for the very same people he fought for, to despise him.
I shudder at the thought of hippies treating our Vietnam vets the way they did.
I remember, as a child seeing veterans from Angola coming back and some folks would treat them badly, but I never saw it to the extent that it is happening now and after Vietnam!
To all the veterans, a very heartfelt thank you. I don't think many people realize how much America has to offer and in a very large part, due to the efforts of our servicemen and women!
Without our soldiers, we'd all be speaking German or Japanese now. Without our soldiers, we'd be paying $50 a gallon for gas (first Gulf war). Without our soldiers, whole cultures would have been wiped from the face of the earth (Balkans). The list goes on and on.
Due to the efforts of our boys in uniform, America has become the land of milk and honey - just bring your own cow and bees.
Thank you for keeping this country Great and Safe! |
