"Roger That, David!" When we arrived in San Fran, we went from the plane to a waiting bus. Then to some Army place, where we were allowed to take the best shower I'd had in a year. We didn't mingle with any civilians. I think the best part was, San Francisco didn't STINK. RVN was like a huge latrine.
I later enrolled at ISU. There were a lot veterans there and we stuck pretty close to each other since we had that common bond, but life had changed and we were not like the other students.
I think of the men and women that serve today. I know what they are going through.
