Worked with a guy who worked the brown water navy and had extensive knowledge of the rivers in northern Vietnam. Did a few things where we didn't go according to the gubmint. When he came back he and a navy buddy were sent to a Redline Brig. Eventually they learned to say what the psychologists wanted to hear and got out. Later Jimmy Carter sent a letter apologizing for what they did to my bud. He had already burned his uniforms and all other stuff related. He burned the Jimmy Carter letter. Years later when he wanted some credit so he could get certain benefits he found out his records had "burned in a tragic fire" in a St. Louis warehouse. I consider him my brother and we spent many an hour watching and transporting crooks for the state of Misery. I hope Rocky, DD, and all you vets know that some of us honor you vets more than most others. The U. S. military of today scares me..... Be Well, RZ.


Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy. Its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery. Winston Churchill.
