19. I'm one - Dad Served Two Tours in Viet Nam, Laos, Okinawa
Edited on Sat Oct-08-05 09:47 PM by radio4progressives
he wanted to go to Korea but he was a tad too young..

I became firmly against the Viet Nam war in my senior year in High School - 1968. Then i got active with Viet Nam veterans just returning who became very active on and off the base.

All to the great displeasure of my family.

on edit: should have mentioned that my father was a Marine and he died just after returning from his second tour.
