58,000 families of dead American servicemen would not be so kind.
IMO - the Vietnamese govt should make an official apology for breaking the cease-fire................................
Yes, I do. I hated the Cong and the NVA, not the Vietnamese people. I worked with many good people in South Vietnam, people I believed (and still do) were worth protecting, worth fighting with and for. They were loyal to us, trusted us, and it broke my heart when America abandoned them.
I have some dear friends yet, a Vietnamese family who managed to get out after the war was over; they are wonderful people, who went through hell to get here. Their children were born here, as American as you and I; they have never known their ancestral homeland, though they still speak the language. I see them living here in freedom now, and I think that is what we fought for, after all.

I have gradually gotten over thinking of them as The Enemy.
There are other Asian food options.

Gin, are you a Vietnam Veteran? If you are, and you saw combat, I can understand why you would ask this question.

Short answer, no, he isn't and I am; yet he's the one who hates them (apparently including the ones we went there to protect in the first place). Go figure.

I was just wondering. If he had served and had PTSD, I would have totally understood his unwillingness or inability to enter a Vietnamese restaurant. Sometimes, even a smell will trigger a bad memory or a flashback. You probably know all about that. I understand.
But now that I understand that it's just bitterness from a historical standpoint.....okay.
Henry is just another **** Nazi. The Vietnamese, like the Iraqi's and Afghans, were NEVER an enemy of the nation formerly known as USA.I have gradually gotten over thinking of them as The Enemy.
