    My father served in Nam. What a disservice the left did to the people that serve this nation. My father came back twice, shot. And I hate gooks almost as much as ragheads.

    Hell I was a dead head as well, but I always knew we had enemies, I never tried to sugar coat it, in fact when I was well partying back in the day we thought of nice things to do to the enemies. And I never ever had anything but the up most respect for our troops, they went and did a job that many sitting back in the states where afraid to do.

    You are absolutely correct. We can thank John Kerry and Jane Fonda for a lot of that.

    I was old enough to enter then. I missed the draft by 3 numbers.

    I told my Dad about it and he said "no son of mine is coming to this
    hell-hole. If they try to take you, head north to where they speak French. I'll pay your way."
    He was a Bronze Star and Purple Heart awardee in WWII.

    Join the club. People don't get the difference between a goofball CA hippy and a Southern hippy. We were Lynyrd Skynrd types. I hated to hang around with you. We'd be in prison probably STILL. And I'd blame YOU.
