re: Normandy vet sings "Blood on the Risers/Paratrooper thread. Any jumpers?

I was not a jumper, but I was in HHQ Company of the 101st Airborne Division as a 52B30. For all you civilians out there, that would be a generator mechanic.
Worked alongside many heroes that were jumpers, coming back from Vietnam.
The social environment at the time was pretty much comparable to the protesting bullshite going on at college campuses today. Only instead of targeting the Jews as villains,like these Hamas-loving lunatics do, the protesters treated soldiers as the bad guys. These heroes I mentioned, were only doing what their country asked them to do, They didn't try like hell to avoid duty by any means possible or high tail it to Canada with many other cowards.
Vietnam vets never got the welcome home treatment that today's soldiers get. Instead they were spit on and looked down at as a murderers, etc.
I didn't just hear or read about these things, I was there...I saw it!
So, if you see a Vietnam veteran, please tell 'em "thanks for your service and welcome home". We owe it to them!
