Subject: RE: BS: Who's marching on February 15th?
Well, in Vietnam times maybe it was different over here, but generally GIs were seen as victims of the war, prisoners of the system. "Stop the War - Send the soldiers home" was the feeling. Now the politicians and the generals, that was a different story.

As for tomorrow - the Independent newspaper, which has been rather on the fence about all this, came out today with a great big halfpage map in colour, showing the route and where all the loos are. There's never been that kind of treatment for any march I've ever been in before.

Anyway - good luck everyone, I'm turning in now.
