Yes, I don't watch network TV so I can't exactly boycot a buch of idiots and young dip____s. BUT the leadership at that company should have known better and if they did know and still went forward with this shameful and despicable display then screw 'em. Or maybe that's what they were going for to boost flagging viewership. "Let's tick off an 1/2 entire generation, get the other 1/2 cheering and get our name circulating."

I still think they should have made all of N.Veet-nam into a parking lot.Robert
My wife's a fan and I watched it with her. These two scenes pretty much made me sick.
It's all part of the subtle and not so subtle indoctrination process.

Good = bad
Communism = good

I just mailed CBS and told them of my displeasure. No watching from this house.

As a Vietnam veteran, I cannot even begin to respond here. Unable to find acceptable words.

Many of us VN Vets are used to receiving a sub level of respect. I mean after all we were better know for killing babies and burning villiages than serving our country. I will admit that overall VN vets. get more respect these days than for the first 30 years or so after serving.
One of my SIL lost her husban yesterday morning ,official cause of death was a heart attack but he was also a VN Vet. and had been on disability and Meds. for the past 30 plus years.

Vet . 2nd of the 47th 9th.Inf. Viet Nam Mar. 67-68
I lost a friend when his. B-52 was shot down over Hanoi.
I do know MANY Nam vets(I was to old even then)that will never forget or forgive.
I have never seen anything about the young ladies left behind and its effects on them.
A young lady I worked with (a true sailors dream, looks brains and personality)married her highschool sweetheart just before he left for Nam.
PARTS of him was back in less than a month for burial. Not much weight in the casket.
She has never recovered,never even gone on a date since then.
Just a forgotten casualty of that war.
It gives me a warm feeling to see that all of those troops are FINALLY being treated with a THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE.
Its LONG overdo.
WE WON. WE BEAT THE MACHINE. WE HAVE CCW NOW.
Not sure if it will do much good, but I extend my sincere apologies to all Viet Nam vets!!

I am NOT a vet, but lived through the time of Viet Nam. We did you guys a dis-service then and now this... Damn sorry about both
I think they have no clue just how offending this is.
I just went back over to the Fox site to see what was happening with this and,,,,,,nothing! It's gone but the latest DAILY news about Lindsy Lohan is of course there. Apparently more interest in hollywood deadbeats than a network insult to our vets, I am really, and I mean REALLY, starting to worry about this country!
vietnam 66-67 combat wounded,30% disabled cbs can K.M.A. I like the parking lot idea,with jane fonda the parking lot attendant.Doesnt anybody remember?Or is it that they dont care? deepcreek
It just shows how low journalism has fallen when a known addict who has been given every chance to clean up her act and refuses to do so gets coverage and this just gets swept under the carpet.
It gives new meaning to "you did not earn that someone gave it to you". The lord gave her all of that and she is wasting it every day and getting great news coverage because she broke the law again and only got a short visit to a luxury jail at our expense.
How about a 7 figure fine and serious jail time at a real prison next time because there will be a next time for her unlike the vets that came home in caskets,missing body parts or living with physical or mental problems.
WE WON. WE BEAT THE MACHINE. WE HAVE CCW NOW.
It's not out of the news yet. With Fox, you just have to let it cycle through, they won't let it go.
