I served with the USMC in VietNam from Nov 67-Feb-70. For the last 38 years I have never heard welcome home from someone other than those of us that went. Last month I was in Thailand on business and had a young lady 28 years old find out I served in VietNam. She came to me and said she had never ever met one of the hero's of that war but had read a lot about us and her grandparents told her of us where upon she hugged me, thanked me with all of her heart and cried like a baby. I am 59 years old but it finally brought me to a place of peace. My only disappointment is "I still wait for that greeting at home"? Semper FI and WELCOME HOME MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS!
