My brother-in-law Gary served in Nam in infantry. He died a few years ago of an extremely virulent cancer. My son served in the Marines during the 1st Gulf War. He has a complex of health issues.

Vietnam vets were drafted while I volunteered to join the Army. We both were sent to fight a pointless war, but they came back with little to no help from the VA and I came home to lots of help from the VA (thanks to the Vietnam vets).

Cancer is a bitch. My thoughts will be with him.

One of my cousins was with the Marine 3rd regiment, Con Thien 67-68. Truly those guys had to shoulder a heavy load.
Peace,
