just a couple questions on your service in Vietnam if you don't mind.

I read a lot about that war, I have always been intrigued by it. I was wondering what branch, and where you served. any of the bigger battles we read about?? If you wish to not answer, I understand.

also, my uncle served in Vietnam, and when Clinton ran, we discussed politics one night .... he is a staunch union card carrying democrat. I asked him "how can you as a Vietnam vet, vote for Clinton, who skirted his responsibilities by going to Europe?"

his face flushed, and he looked at me with a look I will NEVER forget, and he said" you have no right to ask me that, you were not there"

this exchange has always bothered me, and I will never bring it up to him again, he was really a different guy for several minutes that night.

just curious if other Vietnam vets felt this way.... (john kerry excluded)

and thanks for your service!
