    Not true. My Dad was Army and in VN. He was confronted a few years later for wearing VN service ribbons/metals. Mom, bless her, had saved his copies of all his paperwork proving he had earned them. The official records were destroyed in that fire.
    Every normal man must be tempted at times to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats. -- H.L. Mencken

    The notion that a radical is one who hates his country is naïve and usually idiotic. He is, more likely, one who likes his country more than the rest of us, and is thus more disturbed than the rest of us when he sees it debauched. He is not a bad citizen turning to crime; he is a good citizen driven to despair.― H.L. Mencken

    Gentlemen: I, myself am a veteran. I agree with Larry that dead or alive, truth should prevail. Isn't that what history is all about, and the constant researching to discover the truth about our past? Many books have been written about this or that figure in history and what they really did or did not do, good or bad. No one here is a coward, and such insinuations are in bad form. For that reason this thread is now closed, it all having been said and nothing really to be added.
