This is probably the best and emotion driven portrayal I have ever seen along with the real hero's. Please watch. I was to young to go to Vietnam but had a cousin named James Osborn, I think was drafted, I cant remember. He was my favorite cousin as both of us were the black sheep of the family and always got along really great! The family called him Jimmy or young Jim after his Dad my uncle. I remember when he came home the first time. He went back there for another tour and never came home emotionally.

2bltap,

Thanks for this post. Brought me to tears, having been there 68-69, 5th, SFG. I was lucky, I came home physically, suffering from PTSD. 50+yrs. later I still wake up and check the perimeter. I still cry for the Brothers I lost that didn’t come home. They will always be with me.
Thanks again and may God Bless you.
We live for them!
