There are many who claim the U.S. military never lost a battle
I have been one to say this, and on these very pages. However, based on Mad Russians eloquent proof, I humbly stand corrected. I also stand stripped of another little bit of my pride in having served. You see, having come back from my service in Vietnam, to a country not happy to see me, as well as pissed because we lost, I guess I leaned on that false sense of accomplishment in order to muddle along. But the truth will be known, and our detractors can once again bask in their righteousness, and in the integrity of their facts. Facts that point us out as the failures we were.
Do not cry for me however, as I will always retain the honor for having volunteered to go to Vietnam when my country called. I did not join and sit idly by in the rear somewhere, while my Brothers spilt their blood. No, I stood right beside some who gave their full measure, and was ready to give mine, for I am a warrior, tried and true, regardless of that war's politics or outcome.
