But Kathy, you were right in the sense that, for instance, it was not popular to be in the military during the Vietnam era. It was digusting the way they were treated when they came home (those that made it home). I think most of us know what you meant by that statement. No worries.

After rereading my post I see that I did say “even when it wasn’t/isn’t popular to be one of our nation’s soldiers”, however, I didn’t mean it to say our soldiers shouldn’t be honored, but just acknowledging that they do their duty regardless of public opinion. My father and brothers have all served at one time or another in times of war and conflicts as many of our nations men and women have. I’m thankful for them all.

My deep and sincere thanks to you, Tom, and every other veteran on our list, for your service to our country even when it wasn’t/isn’t popular to be one of our nation’s soldiers.
