He carried the sins of a lot of vietnam vets on his shoulders and was a scapegoat who stood trial just to make the American public feel better.
What he did was wrong, but you just had to be there to understand.
RIP Sir. I'm glad to see you found some peace in your later life.

As my grandmother always said, don't judge me until you walk a mile in my moccasins. You are spot on. Most US citizens have no idea what he and all of you went through. I would bet that since the first war men have done things caused by their war time experience. Not condoning but understanding. |

I didn't see much but there's a few on here who went through hell before hell was an option. There might be a few who are closer to the story than we realize. God bless them if so. |
