Thank you for your service! My youngest brother served in the army during the Vietnam war. He was over there with the 101st Airborne Division. Thank God he came back okay...minor shrapnel wound near his collar bone, healed rapidly. I was an Air Force bomber mechanic/crew chief in the middle 1950's...no combat, but my airplane and crew became Strategic Air Command select combat ready and had a target in the USSR assigned, my aerial observer/bombadier showed me the radar image of it.

I have the utmost respect for any and all people who have honorably served in our armed forces...in peace and in war.
