268th C.A. Posted August 15, 2023 Share #78 Posted August 15, 2023 High School...Oh yeah, I remember it well. Glad I missed it. Born deaf in one ear. I guess a blessing that I didn't think was. saw many of the older neighbours. returning. Guys were giving me stuff they didn't want the bad memories. They just wanted to forget it. that was one war that I saw no need to fight. Politicians would let it end. Seems like the ones that followed were just as bad. Welcome Home Veterans !

P-59A Posted December 27, 2023 Share #82 Posted December 27, 2023 I was 13 years old. My dad watched the CBS Evening News with Walter Cronkite every evening. My dad never said a word. He got out of the AirForce in 62 and had friends that stayed in. Many years later we went to visit the traveling wall. He pointed out their names to me.

MinutemanEMTer Posted December 28, 2023 Share #84 Posted December 28, 2023 I was also 13. But very informed from my SMsgt. Air Force father. I was one of the very few in my class that knew what was happening over there and here. Probably more than my teacher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
