You voluteered to repel the hordes from where, Canada? Some northern invasion that I missed? No, of course not, your referring to Vietnam. Now if tiny Vietnam presented an iminent and dire threat to these shores, I’d love for you to make the case. Otherwise, drop this whole silly “I’m a bigger patriot than you” jag your on. You volunteered to fight in a trumped up war, noble if naive at best, but hardly something I'd crow about. I volunteered(to avoid being drafted) for a “cushy” Air Force gig, and outside of sorrow for all those who died or were badly wounded in that unnecessary bloodbath, I feel nothing other than lucky to have gotten out with my skin intact. The only true “patriots” in that war fought on the other side. We had no business being there at all, it was totally unnecessary for our defense or to advance our( the populace) "interests".

I changed browsers and you became, as if by magic, unmuted. Keep a civil tongue ( I know you will) and you can remain so.
