Default Viet Nam Veterans Day 29 March

I would like to thank ALL my brothers & sisters who served in Southeast Asia & welcome them ALL home. I am the son of a USAF Viet Nam Veteran, who got as far as Oakland Army Base on orders for Nam as well. I got diverted to Germany, but during a one week stay at OAB, I pulled KP on my dress khakis & served Steak & Egg "Return Home" Breakfasts to all who made it home on their own two feet. That may have been the ONLY "Welcome Home" many of you ever received. I am proud of that KP duty, & as a Patriot Guard Rider, I SWEAR that no returning US Military Veteran will EVER be treated in that manner...
