To all of the veterans of the war in Afghanistan: All I can say is that you have done your best to serve your country in time of war, and you did your best to help the people of that beleaguered country. I am a veteran of the Vietnam War, and what is going on in Afghanistan today has brought back very painful memories of the collapse of South Vietnam. My heart goes out to you all.
