[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Where the hell are all the Vietnam Vets on this issue? Where the hell are all the Vietnam Vets who have been complainiing for the past forty years that no one appreciated them and no one gave them a ticker-tape parade when they returned home from Nam? There is a soldier who is being returned home right now from five years in captivity as a POW and he's being dragged through the mud. You belly a ached about not getting a parade and you ride your motorcycles around the beltway celebrating "Rolling Thunder" and bemoaning the POWs we left behind, but you don't have the balls to stand up in defense of Sgt. Bergdahl.

You really don't get it.  Most Vietnam vets appreciate watching out for your fellow soldier.  Bergdahl walked away and put his platoon in danger.[/quote]

Sure, like every Vietnam Vet was as pure as the driven snow; guess again.  Like no military  personel in Vietnam ever messed up.  War is ugly and sad. Most of us who have served have stories we won't tell our children. Like most of us Sgt. Bergdahl may not deserve a Congressional Medal of Honor, but he does not deserve to be spat upon and ridiculed as were many Vietnam Vets when they returned home from war. If you feel you deserved better treatment when you returned home from war, you should be strongly defending Sgt Berdahl's right to come home and rebuild his life.

If you can't do that then you have no right to fly or wear a POW flag. [/quote]
