Sadly they didn't want to hear what we had to say. They spat on us and called us names like. "Baby killers" . I know you have heard this story from many other Vietnam Vets, but it's been 40 Plus years. I still can't forget getting off the Plane in Seattle Washington and having to go into the Men's room to take off my uniform and hide it in my suitcase. I know I sound bitter I work everyday to let this go. I'm so glad the troops come home today to a Friendly home coming. Maybe we as a Nation did listen! Time will tell. Peace and GOD BLESS AMERICA.
