Thank you for your service. I grew up as my uncle was coming back and always saw him and treated him as a hero. It wasn't until older that I learned about all that happened. Now I am working on a project illustrating his journals, and fully studying it over the next few years.
Thank you for sharing. I look forward to following.
It would be interesting to see what your uncle thought about the protesters. Most veterans ridiculed them, but a lot were draftees and were angry about the war anyway.
I will ask him. We talk about the war every Wednesday. I think there was more anger in the confusion of coming home and being shunned by his home town, especially friends he once knew. Walking into his old favorite bar and being told they don't serve his kind.
Your memories of your experiences are very interesting. Thank you for sharing.
