    A Man,
    With no Fealing
    A War,
    With no Meaning
    A Gun,
    Which is dealing
    A Boy,
    Shot and Bleeding

    A mother,
    stands weeping
    Agen Orange,
    is spraying
    The foliage,
    is dying
    The enemy,
    is raping
    The river,
    red with blood, is flowing
    V.C.,
    are advancing
    Ho CHi Mihn,
    is winning


    Sorry, your poem touched a nerve, so I went with it.

    Malapuscua:Your the only poster old enough to remember Viet Nam.
    Was there myself, smelled the smells , lived the life for 13 months.
    Saw what that war did to this country, Am seeing what this war is doing to our country now, not good.

    Thankfully, VietNam is a beautiful "West-friendly" country now.
    They have jouned the World Trade Organization.
    They are still under communist rule, but are far more open to foreign trade.

    I am planning a visit to Da Nang (China Beach) and then up in the mountains to the town of Dalat, a tourisy place where the weather is near 75 degrees year-round.

    Do you have any good mamories of Nam? (weekend pass?)
