When I was young, during the Vietnam War, many of my friends went there and died. I remember them in terms of where they played on our high school baseball team: catcher, second base, left field. They're gone.
But I also remember them as their sensibilities were when they and I were so young: an animal, or a new human, was fun!
For better or for worse, I am just naturally attracted to that sort of thing. I think we have good men and women fighting on our behalf. I think we always have.
Unfortunately, that gets lost in the political issues from time to time.

I miss them, sorely.
I don't doubt you one bit, Sherwood.
