My story is short, my first husband was in Vietnam and I remember no parades, no yellow ribbons, no well done son welcome home. He was spit on and despised by a country he laid down his life for. How ungrateful is that! But I welcome all of our Vietnam vets home with yellow ribbons and a great big THANK YOU and a big GOD BLESS YOU!!! LET FREEDOM RING!! I served this country for 20 years, and I don't ask for glory I just ask for a simple Thank You for your service, cause it was given without expectation, without thought of heroism, just my contribution and grateful that I as a woman was finally be allowed to serve. God Bless America long may she stand!
