When my Dad came home from Viet Nam in late 66 he had changed from the man I knew before he left.
He would shake his head and scream, yes scream what the hell is going on in this country.
I was raised by this guy that had served in three of Americas wars or conflicts call them what you will.
But because of the way he saw things and how they should be so go I.
At this time I laugh more and more at myself as I repeat my fathers words and a few times have turned
around half expecting that man to be standing there., saying see what I mean.
You can call me whatever you want, but don’t call me late for dinner!

I've made these same observations and although I'm not as long in the tooth I agree with each point made. As an African American man (Identifies as simply American lol) who actively serves in the USMC. Going back home means being subjected to the same criticisms but tac on Race trader, sell out, uncle tom, and whatever 'deplorable' group CNN chooses to point their cannon at this week I must admit it gets harder and harder to hear them when I'm blowing by'em all on my F6B lol.

Looks like we are all part of a new "Me Too" movement. I'm ok with that...
The guy who invented the first wheel was an idiot -
the guy who invented the second one... he was the genius!

I guess I'm a Me Too also, now that I see what it means! And you guys make me very proud to be one these "Me Too" people.
By the way, I've woke up every day of my nearly 64 years free to enjoy life as I see fit as have my children and Grandchildren. And that's because of you veterans! Thanks for your service.
