She was looking for a boy who would slay dragons. She found him, and they lived happily ever after. Occasionally life gives us a fairytale!

I read and responded to each and every comment about my feelings for all veterans, especially the Vietnam Vets. Each and every person who served is someone’s child. Pray for peace. War serves no one but the profiteers.

@Madameblueyes @TheBoldNorthGal I just I saw none of that today. I saw Victor visiting Jack. That was it. I fast-forwarded the rest

@Madameblueyes @TheBoldNorthGal I haven’t seen any of that here. I had a whole day of nonsense that I fast forwarded today

@SJackson18281 I’m so sorry for your experience. I realize it’s no consolation, but he wasn’t the same person he was when he came home

[Whitney Devlin @whitneydevlin]

@PSMortgageBear There’s no question they got the short end of the stick, and it was up to our government to correct that mistake, and they never did.

[Whitney Devlin @whitneydevlin]

@bimbodanaleigh It was disgraceful because they didn’t choose to be there. They were drafted. I’m not quite sure why that salient factor was ignored.

[Whitney Devlin @whitneydevlin]

@NormEakin They really had no choice back then. They were drafted, and still they were demonized.

[Whitney Devlin @whitneydevlin]

@ungerfield Agreed

[Whitney Devlin @whitneydevlin]

@ThomasWinder9 You’re right. Probably not. I hope they felt appreciated, even though officially they would never recognized.

[Whitney Devlin @whitneydevlin]

@GeorgChornbrook I was always very Pollyanna about it, and expected the recognition for their service and their sacrifice to on day be recognized. It never happened officially, but I believe that it did happened where it counted, in the court of public opinion.

[Whitney Devlin @whitneydevlin]

@Shark5881715566 I think that would depend on the neighborhood where you grew up. I am not a princess.

[Whitney Devlin @whitneydevlin]

@crampyTJ I couldn’t agree with you more. I grew up during that time, and I know firsthand, granted it may be just my opinion, but if you’ve lived it, you felt it.

This is me. All too often.
