[QUOTE="Pokinfun, post: 2153664, member: 28113"] Dennis, I served 20 years in the Army, as a RedLeg. Now, I teach 7th Grade Geography. This time of year we cover SE Asia, even though our textbook and state standards do not cover the Vietnam War, in Geography, I still took the day, 29 March, to discuss the Vietnam War. We looked at pictures, listened to some music, discussed the draft, protesters, and how and why our nation was torn apart by the war. We discussed how those are the same two groups of people running our nation today. How our current political problems are the effect of the Vietnam generation. We ended the different classes, with the kids talking about thier grandparents, who we were in the war. I wanted to let you know that kids today are inspired by your generation, and appreciate everyone who served in Vietnam. They also understand how your generation, changed our nation, by standing up for what they believed in, on both sides of the war, for or against. [/QUOTE]
