MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL AND HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO THOSE WHO CELEBRATE OTHER HOLIDAYS [HANUKKAH AND KWANZAA].I too look foward to reading the forum everday and appreciate its'contributors. We shouldn't however forget the men and women who can't because they're contributing by carrying a plain M-16 while the rest of us are home, with our fancy toys. I spent 2 Christmas's away ['70 & '71] while in VIETNAM with the 25th.Inf.Div. and I remember how gut wrenching it was to read letters and listen to cassette tapes from home. Lets' keep these guys and gals in our prayers! JERRY
