Happy Memorial Day

[Thomas]

Last February the final WWI U.S. veteran died. I read in this week's NYTimes Book review section that a few months ago, just 1.5 million WWII U.S. vets remained.

Left me to wonder how many of us Vietnam era U.S. vets are around.

I salute all who do what they believe is their duty, without whom concepts and ideas like the founding of this country would not be possible--but I still hate war and remain saddened that various humans have yet to figure out how to co-inhabit the earth.
