There are a lot of Vets still in the work force in this area that would not let the VA touch them with a ten foot pole. Their senior trip to Vietnam created a whole lot of distrust for Uncle Sam with his hand extended. Their worst fear is to lose the ability to work and have to go to the VA for medical care. Having experienced it up close and personal regard a loved one I have to say their fears are not unfounded. I hope they all die standing up at their jobs with their boots on flyin' the California howdy to Uncle Sam and his experiment in medical? care?...


Sometimes you win
Sometimes you won't
Sometimes you beat that devil
Sometimes you don't
We're all just killin' time
Til the good Lord calls us home
And the best that you can hope for
Is to die with your boots on
