Thanks to you also Karl, I never thought we would last this long but it has been a "ride". Mike, 36 Engr. Bn. (Const.) 1970

Mike, I fully understand the "last that long" concept! After "mildly" feeling the effects of Agent Orange/Operation Ranch Hand, I feel really lucky at 79 to be "out there doing it best I can"! Karl

I was on a sunset walk last evening when my phone buzzed. It was a text from an old high school friend and its timing and words hit hard. A Viet Nam vet, he wrote in response to my “How are you doing?”
“I am currently treating for cancer. I have agent orange for four years.”
God have mercy upon him and all those who served there.

I read there is a movement to replace the sick, perverted, and shameful Pride Month with a full month to honor our living and deceased military veterans.
It's about time, and it sure wouldn't hurt to call, write, or email your Congressman to urge him or her to co-sponsor and support such legislation.
