I served three tours in Vietnam...first on a carrier then on river boats..never got a scratch which I am thankful for..Buried my memories of what I did and happened to me over their....but one thing I will never forget of forgive...on one of my r&r's between tours..I was greeted with not spit or even the baby killer deal....people would just move to opposite side of the hallway in the airports like I was a lepper..on one flight a couple would not sit next to me on the plane.....probably my fault for wearing my uniform...but I was and still am proud of it...I am glad they are taking care of the new vets...hope it continues
