I for one as so many of us did,Served proudly for our country and for our family. WE did as asked, with no
back talk.We killed and were kill,some gave all and all gave what ever was needed, of them.But when all the dust
settles, silently we served proudly and silently we came home.,one by one some altogether and some not but as
proudly as we could be.We were the American Vets from Nam.
" Who Cares" besides our family and loved ones, was the felling we Vets felt from our country and Now many trs. later we, the Nam vets still standtall and proud.
Now our country is trying to say Thank to us for our service.Yea its late but as we were told better late
them never. I for one say Thank you to our country and in return its really Thank You to our Vets of Vietnam and All wars.. But also saying thank mean to me. That there is still
a Free and Proud countrythat we call " AMERICAN '.So to all Vietnam and other wars, Veterans, THANK YOU..
God bless American that's what Vets do, stand
proud still have the courage to keep this proud country
still free, free.ALL GAVE SOME AND SOME GAVE ALL
FOR THR RED ,WHITE AND BLUE..


THANK YOU TO ALL VETERANS

WELL DONE TO ALL OF US !!!!
We did our duty and faced our responsibilities and made ourselves stand proud. Left our homes and families and went into hell but did it honorably and proudly.

Veterans Day at the Long Beach VA. My wife warmed the hearts of many Vietnam Vets. Every VN Vet she met she would flash her 1000 watt smile and say "Thank you for your service and thank you for serving my country." She made me so proud. She
was in Vietnam from 1954 to 1975. Spent time in a Communist Re-education camp. In 1975 left everything behind and put her self in harms way to escape communism on a boat. Came to the USA, learned English and earned her citizenship. Proved to be a productive member of the USA. Appreciates what the US has to offer more than most that were born here. She cannot imagine not voting knowing what it is like to not be able to vote.
After the day at Long Beach VA she treated me to a concert for Vets. Thanks May.
