I've had C rats, K rats, and MRE's. I hope that everybody had a good Thanksgiving. I am classified as a Vietnam era Veteran, wasn't in country. Time of enlistment was deciding factor.
Those that did go, thanks for the service. Right after I enlisted, while VN was still going on, I was spit on in uniform in my home state. And, I had to be a professional about it and keep walking. Times were a lot different than those the kids today have. But......and I mean a big but...it's about time this country woke up and realized the sacrifices that every military member makes. I'm just an old USAF puke that painted and did sheet metal on the airplanes. Some rough times, but not like what some had to endure.
Heart felt thanks to all those that did!!!!
