My favorite line is "they left their childhood on every acre." Paul Hardcastle sang a song called Nineteen....which told the average age of soldiers in WWII was 26....in Vietnam, it was 19. And then they if they made it back home, they were spat on and called baby killers....when most of them had been drafted and just did what they were told to do. As a nation, we should be ashamed of the way they were treated....so, yes, I make sure my Vietnam veteran, who served two tours over there, knows everday what a hero I think he is.
