no, i'm not but respect for those who are , and i think that war was not necessary

I also am not a Vietnam vet

I was fortunate enough to be in college,was sad to tremember good friends that died there,and the ones that came back and later commited suicide

I think it's horrible that we have a national holiday for Veterans, yet the majority of those who "served their counrty" are now homeless and disregarded by humanity.

But then again....they chose to SERVE.

Serve...... = SLAVE.

Wow, that post was completely useless to this thread. Why not go and take your propaganda someplace else.

I challenge you, or anyone else for that matter, to show where the majority of vets are homeless and disregarded.

I know it has happened to some, but not the majority.

In Canada we have shipped out 1 million brides in the last 30 years , since sept 11 2001 till now with New Orleans disasters Canada has takin in about 500 000 full stone young homelss Native Amerikan women . Every 300 years we take in the women from the United Sates due to overcrowding and the only refugees into canada for the last 150 years or so are native amerikan brides only .

This is all run by militray types but by taking the 1 million Canadian women you now have 5 million new Amerikan residents Canada is only 5 million settlet votes male and female not the 10 million 50 years ago .

Enjoy your new residents , we are enjoying ourz ! We find eskimoe women for US natives here thru the grapevince only Coutyney Love is an actual adopted lady here blood is sweeidsh eskome they have a small contingent who move to Tacoma washington from south eastern Mongolia Russia . We find danish and Sweedish Eskimoes like courtney for our brides our kids are metis Canucks . The coast of canada has alot of Russsians now they have been here for a million years . Jerry Sienfield told you , if you dont like me tacoma I'm moving back to Hope BC with my new wife . My family moved here to Hope 1 million years ago from south eastern Mongolia goodbye . WE like Jerry and the boyz they is our 5 million settlers left ,. the ORIGINAL fmamlies from half a million years age and more are the only settlers left .

Funny end to this Middle Amerikans , HOUMOR !@

I have a pretty crazy Vietnam story. My uncle who fought in Vietnam was an officer, he was hit by shrapnel from a land mine which wounded him. After that the helicopter picked him up, and it was shot down while transporting him and other wounded to safety. He managed to survive both incidents and lived for another 13+ years later with metal inside his body, he died of an aneurysm around when I was born in the late 80's from his injuries. What a brave man.

no

Yes. 3Rd Bn 9Th Marine Regiment H&S Tactical Air Control Party attached out to infantry companies to coordinate air support as ground to air liaison..... 1968-69.

I read on a Veterans Forum that 60% of all the Vietnam Veterans are dead.

My dad was 3rd Marines '69 Vietnam. He went bald at 20. Only person in the family to ever go bald.

1st child was born with a club foot, deformed/extra ribs, extra vertebrae. Got grey hairs by 17, which is a sign of degenerative nervous system disorder
2nd child born with crooked spine, heart murmur/defect

Agent Orange Babies/ Camp Lejeune Water Babies.

Any other Vietnam Vets had deformed kids? DOW Chemical got off SCOTT FREE.

Some cool stuff here
