Your murdered, bombed or whatever - just blame it on your country, because you did it? <br /><br /><br />Laughable!

Though not as extreme, of course, we should not discount the millions of wives, girlfriends, and children who suffered their grief and loneliness along with the vets.Tomnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7960343306536592656.post-28186456898938889052015-04-27T10:45:51.418-07:002015-04-27T10:45:51.418-07:00As an Army Vietnam vet, I am so ashamed of what my...As an Army Vietnam vet, I am so ashamed of what my my country has brcome and what it has done. I has asked every Vietnamese I come in contact with to please forgive me for what we have done. As for the US govt, they have learned nothing. The murder and plundering has continued unabated. robertsgt40noreply@blogger.com
