It seems like yesterday, my generation, which was divided up into two groups, those who served in the Vietnam War, a coming of age for most of us, and those who didn't go. That distinction is fast disappearing, as most of my group are now gone, but those of us who have survived serve to remind everyone of the true cost of what General Eisenhower warned us about, getting bogged down in a land war in Asia.
Ernest Hemingway — "Never think that war, no matter how necessary nor how justified, is not a crime. Ask the infantry and ask the dead."
