I came up at a time when our parents had served in WWII. And when JFK aked us to serve our country, many of us took it to heart.

I returned to Vietnam three times, long after the war. I laughed--and cried--with former allies and enemies--RVNs, VC and NVA. I have far more in common with them than I ever will with chickenhawk Rambo-wannabes like Ted Nugent.
