Default Vietnam

Wasn't there...but a FRIEND was..

We have no clue who said/wrote this:

I stood up, I showed up, I stepped forward.

I raised my right hand, I stood in the gap, I walked in the fire.

I did not run, I did not hide, I did not dodge, I did not evade.'

Consequently...

I have nothing to prove, no one to convince, those who matter, already know.

Those who don't, never will.

Thumbs up Sums It Up For All Vietnam Veterans:

This one sums it up for ALL VIETNAM VETERANS and VETERANS FROM EVERY OTHER CONFLICT our Country has ever been involved in.

We all did step forward and served when our Country desperately needed our services. As for me--Well I am still proud that I did so and would do so again if my talents were again needed. My BODY HOWEVER might have other ideas as I am not the man I once was, many years ago, when I served in Vietnam.

To all of my Vietnam Veteran BROTHERS and SISTERS I again want to wish you a MOST SINCERE and HEART FELT:

WELCOME HOME


VIETNAM 1968
