      Thank you all that served in this terrible War and I pray that your days are brighter now and hopefully you left the war behind, only God can take that war from your mind. May the loving piece of God the Creator rest in your heart now. Because of the choice of so mini power-hungry bullies brought this War about. It affected the whole world. Forgiveness is the healing power of God, so one day you can walk in peace once more without a gun. We may have to call on you again when things get rough in our country, the home of the brave and then we have the weaklings that will most probably fall first. Thank you for your service to our country and others that are in need of a soldier!

      Your dad is 53? Much to young to be a Vietnam Vet.

    May GOD Bless & Heal All Who Served & Serve now & their families. My Father, Venon R. Coots died in 2008 of 'agent orange' cancer. He was a Korean War & Vietnam War & Cold War veteran. He also worked many years for the NASA Lunar Program at White Sands, NM. I am a veteran Army officer, SF. My family are all veterans. Brother Mike is still here, thank GOD, as is mom. My oldest brother Gary, USAF A-10 Thunderbolt 2 - Warthog, Crew Chief died of cancer due to uranium in ammo. May ALL the Families find Peace Healing Health Life ~ GOD Bless & Save the USA & Constitution. {I am in the American Legion & VFW}. Be Well & Safe, Thank You Brothers & Sisters.
