Ah Memorial Day. I am a veteran of two tours in Viet Nam. (1969-70 (1st log Cmd.) & 70-71 (101st Airbone)) There for 12 of the fifteen Army campains. At least that is what my DD214 says.

I was one of the unfortunite ones that got spat on, things thown at, and called "Baby Killer" by the young collage students of the day. (Guess that's why I don't really trust collage people today. ) Anyway, they were being somewhat honist. I alwise felt that my time in the service was to make sure that people could disagree if they really felt that way about something.

I think I perfer honist hate, over phony "you did a good job" crap that is P.C. right now. At least when someone is screaming in your face, you know where you stand. Now I feel that most of the "Hurray! for VN Vets" Is just so much BS.

As a Vet, I don't like the "Wall" I see it as a great open sore, that just won't go away...or heal.

I think spending Memorial Day at Wall- Mart is one heck of a good idea. At least people there are honist and just want your money. Better go on a cook out with your family. Think of your ancesters, buy you should think of your family and ancesters more than once a year.

The one to feel sorry for the the Sgt. that "helped" clinton place the wreith. In case you missed it, Clinton had to make several stabs with the flowers to get them in the stand. The Sgt. had to make him look good as he was screwing up. I wonder if clinton was drunk?

Well, that's my opinion of the holliday, personaly I prefer Thanksgiving.

Fadac.
