Just let people know

From Michael P Beck, on Tue, 29 Aug 2000 15:19:04 GMT (in response to: Just to let the people know that I care about what they did for the U.S.)

Thank you for your remarks about service in Vietnam. It's nice for a change to hear something positive about the men and women who just thought they were serving their country. I served with the 25th Infantry Division and the 101st Airborne Division. My first tour in Nam was during the "TET OFFENSIVE" in 1968, I lost my best friend during a battle, and I only got a piece of schrapnel in the leg. My second tour I lost many other friends, and was only wounded by schrapnel in my arm. My third tour was the same, only this time I was shot three times in the other arm and sent back to the states to a military hospital. I was one of the lucky ones. I'm sure you don't want to hear any "War Stories" so I'll close for now. Thank you again for your support for those who served.       
                 Sincerely, Michael P Beck
