"If you were alive during the Vietnam War (not conflict) it probably had a profound effect on you whether in the military or not, whether you loved or hated those who fought. If you pulled a tour of duty in country you know what a crazy mess it was. Even if there wasn t a war going on around you typically the living conditions were enough of a foul challenge. Now that we re old guys and gals we enjoy a camaraderie that only those who spent a tour in Vietnam can understand. God Bless all those who had their ass on the line every day. "
