Old Foes meeting for a Coffee and talking about common events is not all that unusual after a long period of time elapsing before the meeting.
I have sat with NVA and VC Soldiers and talked of the War we fought against each other.
It seems a bit of mutual respect exists and in the end we are all glad it is over and that we could find a way to understand that we shared many common experiences while engaged in combat.
One old NVA Soldier reminded me that the Rain wet us both and that the Mosquito's did not choose sides at night. Made a lot of sense to me.
