War Stories

It is our perceptions of what occurred in Vietnam 40 years ago. It is entirely accurate? Who knows...it is what we remember...and that's what counts. Does someone have a "better memory"? Perhaps....after all, it was a long time ago.

You are invited to submit your "war stories"...your best recall, a close call, a humorous story, or something you'll never forget.
