He left early to pursue his destiny, as I did in December 1968. This is who he was in HS, who I remember. This is also who he must have been as a man. I say that because I know that he became a man quickly as we all did. It does not matter if Vietnam was right or wrong we all are entitled to our views on that.
War is the greatest wrong man can do to man.
It is also the greatest honor to serve when you believe in what you are serving. I did too. I came back a man and wiser for the time. I spent 20 years and have a soldier's heart that spans time and space. Art, you surely have mixed emotions about the loss of your brother, I just hope that we can all honor what he represents and know that no matter what governments or people do, there are always those who serve.
