I've had a lot of conversations with Vietnam Vets over the years, but the reality is, I can only try to imagine what it must have been like for them. Their treatment upon returning from war is a scar on our national conscience. As a Gulf War veteran, I believe the good treatment we have received (including treatment for mental health/PTSD) is attributable to the sacrifice, commitment, and courage of our Vietnam vets. To them, I say, "Thank you."
