PN,
Perhaps the only consolation for those of us who were involved in those Wars from Korea onwards is we did stop the spread of Communism and perhaps hastened the collapse of the Soviet Union by doing so.
That is scant reward when I stand at the Vietnam Memorial and contemplate all those names especially the ones I knew personally....some of whom I served beside.
I understand only too well what the current generation is going to experience as they look back on their service and sacrifice.....and my heart goes out to them.
We owe all of them for what they have done under some very difficult circumstances....and will have to do in the future.
Obama has decreed the War on Terrorism over.....sad thing is the other side did not get the message.....they will be at us again no matter what our politicians say.
