Our very first Christmas as husband and wife, he was in Viet Nam. No wonder his favorite song is "I'll Be Home for Christmas". Thanks for a wonderful post. I'll go get the tissue now for the tear that escaped.
Please old friend come by my blog. I need your response.
I am very sorry to hear that. There were all types of victims in that war. All wounds were not from bullets or shrapnel.
to all.... we are grateful
That brought tears to my eyes. I lived through that war, and I saw what it did to so many, including one particular member of my family, who came home a full-fledged heroin addict. He died 10 years later from hepatitis--bad needle--as much a victim of that conflict as those who came home in body bags.
