Monk - this is a good time for me to apologize to you and all the Viet Nam Vets. I was one of those who treated you guys badly and I'm sincerely sorry for that. As I've aged and looked back on that period what seemed reasonable at the time now just seems WRONG. There is little in my life for which I feel ashamed and that's a big one.
THANKS from the bottom of my heart to all who served and are serving. While I may disagree with any individual war there is no disagreeing with the skill, dedication, and effort of our men and women who serve.

The significance of this day goes back to WWI, the day the guns fell silent. Despite knowing what war is like 93 years later it is difficult to imagine what it was like in the trenches. I only have an idea about WWII due to movies and shows like Band of Brothers, and the same for Vietnam though I do remember it on TV when I was a kid and the planes flying over all the time. The desert I know real well, so its hard for me to fathom what it was like for the rest who fought in Europe, the Pacific, and Southeast Asia.
This is the day I will always remember my friends who didnt make it home.

welcome we got back in the 60's
thanks for serving and getting the incentives promised in the beginning.
for those that didn't..keep pretending to be thankful. if all of us got the crap pile we got for serving this country would have terrorists knocking down buildings..
oh wait. that is crazy talk.
I posted a graphic vid in random thought thread. modern tours and the size of them donot compare to hand to hand fighting in the millions.
I give a bigger thanks to them..my thanks has rank too.Last edited by Barry Donovan; November 11, 2011, 01:36 PM.Previously boxer3main
