From Jimmy Webster, on Fri, 16 Jan 2004 05:18:23 GMT (in response to: Hero's...each of those who served in Viatnam)
I am a 36 (in'04) year old high school history teacher and baseball coach. I would like to mirror the message left by Jimmy Murray. I too am very interested in learning more from the men who fought in Vietnam. I am fascinated by Vietnam history. Not of the war, but of the people who fought it. It is their stories that need to remain alive. As a child I remember seeing things about the war on TV, but was too young to understand. I would like to ask, but do not want to invade people's private thoughts. I even have a father-in-law who is a Vietnam Veteran and he has never spoke of his time in Vietnam, so I have always assumed he never wants to speak of his past. Thank you for your sacrifices. I am sorry for your (our) losses. You will never be repaid the debt you are owed.
Thank You, Jimmy Webster
