​I thought this was an interesting quote;  from a soldier in Viet Nam who
wrote about his experiences shortly after the battle at Duk To.  I hope
some of the members of the Group will stop and think about this statement:

*"War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things.  The decayed and
degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is
worth war is much worse.  The person who has nothing for which he is
willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal
safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made
and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself. "  ~~*John Stuart
Mill~~

Excerpt From the Book:  *Valor In Vietnam; Chronicles of Honor, Courage and
Sacrifice 1963-1977 *by Allen B. Clark
