quote:remember laying in bed in those days and thinking about some of the guys I knew (older brothers of friends) 6000 miles away fighting in a jungle in the middle of nowhere while I was in the safety of my home. How scared were they? How would I deal with it? How would my mother deal with it? I still can't imagine how they felt then and how the soldiers feel now.
They were real scared. You would deal with it just as we did. My mother called the White House, she wanted my orders cancelled! We felt it was our duty just as the soldiers today do ..... even though many they are protecting just don't get it!
God Speed to the many who are gone and to their families!!
