Actually flats, we had been supporting the French prior to 1854 1954 when they chucked the whole thing at Diem. We started with assistance to the South then and even "helped" them write their very own constitution, though I doubt many Vietnamese read it since it was written in ENGLISH.

Yeah Sorcha, it was a signal event in the lives of many of us and more's the pity. I didn't mean to sound as harshly as I did toward those who went to Canada, but let's face it, as a player, you cashed in your chips when you crossed the border. Good folks I'm sure and I am not demeaning their motives, whatever they are, but they ceased to be players. They remain people though, whose entire lives were affected........as the rest of us were.
