One of the best people I ever knew was a Vietnam veteran. It was difficult to watch his body fall apart from the Agent Orange, but he never stopped helping others right up to the end. Incredibly strong individual.

To all the Vietnam Veterans who answered the nation's call.  You have my respect and eternal gratitude for what turned out to be an extremely polarized and unpopular war.

But you stood tall and proud.  And rightfully so.

Kudos also to all service members who served and are currently serving.
Sometimes you gotta know when to save your bullets.
