Yeah, that’s not easy to deal with is it?
WWII Vets were my favorite people when I was a kid, they’re becoming very rare.
Viet Nam Vets are becoming rare and that’s strange to me because I served with a few of them in the latter parts of their careers.
My formative Military years were in the early 80’s and the Military was on an upward swing in many ways.
Most of that is because the Guy’s who gave a damn stopped and fixed the Army and Ronnie Ray-gun loved us.
We may have ended “The Cold War.” but we walked in the Shadows of the Great Ones who came before us and cleaned it all up.
