    Default Vietnam Vets


    I got this from the Commander of my Military Order of the Purple Hearts chapter, thought some of you might find it interesting. I used to love to go support the riverine force there, we always flew in early to eat breakfast in their mess hall. They had real eggs


    "If you are a Vietnam vet, you will appreciate and understand Gen. Zinni’s presentation. If not, you will never understand us, what we went through and how we lived our lives since. But watching this short video might give you some insight—and appreciation—to who were really are or were. There’s only 1/3 of us left now."
