Our Vietnam Veterans finally welcomed home-it's been a rough road for these Americans-I know first hand how they were not welcomed home so many years ago---this makes me happy for them.
I was a kid during the war and when it ended so other than my cousin, I didn't know anyone in the war. But they did need recognition, and it took them too long to get it, didn't it? I enjoyed your post today. Hugs-Erika ps-Do you know any banana bred recipes for cast iron baking? I need to use up some bananas tonight and I'd like to join in your challenge. Or can I use a regular old banana bread recipe? Thanks!
These veterans are getting the recognition they deserve much too late - unbelievable- so many of these young men were killed and broken during this bad war - a good idea to post this today Kathy! oxo Susi
Thanks for this, Kathy. Those were horrible times in the U.S. - and Vietnam too, of course. I still know vets who are struggling with the aftereffects both physical and mental.
That was a bad war, and so many suffered. My brother-in-law was killed there. Hugs, Valerie

My brother served in Viet Nam came home with a Bronze Star. Nice to see these veterans getting the recognition they deserve.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing this and reminding us of all of those that lost and broken during that war. A dark time for our country and our soldiers.
