Viet-Nam Senceless War

There was a war sometime ago where mem were ordered young and old, to fight the battle keep us safe but for them no escape. The war went on and the battle raged soldiers dieing everyday, so many men and boys too side by side fought for me and you. Viet-Nam what can I say,War of War still killing today. Agent Orange,Flash Backs too, many deceases worst than any flu. One by one they did go for Uncle Sam made it so, fighting a war they knew not why just to stand shoot and die. Marching,fighting days on end never knowing if it would end, or if they would return to the country where they were born. For the ones who didn't die they were'nt even reconized, no not one would they meet or even give them an honorary seat. As for me I have to say they should not have been treated that way. A Hero's welcome they deserved and crowds of people on every curb, but instead they fought,died and we didn't as much as say Good-Bye! Signed; A Guilty One
