I fought in Vietnam and am proud to have served my country and my brothers... albeit in an unnecessary conflict. I not only find the treatment we received when we returned objectionable, I also find the way we were portrayed in movies such as Platoon and Full Metal Jacket equally objectionable. We served with honor and I'm proud of my brothers. When we left home, we were kids; when we came home, we were old men. I found these pictures on Pinterest and they show how things really were:
We ate at fine dining establishments...
We learned the meaning of brotherhood...
We learned first aid...
We babysat children...
WE went for long walks in the country...
We learned the true meaning of sorrow...
Yes I'm proud... proud of each and every man who served!
