You sure were young! Cr...Thanks for your service. You sure were young! Cross-selection of songs carry great meaning and portray both sides of the war.....those protesting against it and those who found themselves servicing in a land far away from home. As it was in your day and has always been, and continues to be now, the media portray a picture from the truth.<br /><br />Unfortunately, the public continues to buy into their narrative and "boys" no young men are vilified for doing what they are called to do by their country.<br /><br />I enjoy your selections of songs as they also have meaning for one who grew up in that era and witnessed homeland events from the eyes of a youth trying to understand what it meant to be a patriot and a responsible citizen.<br /><br />Other music selections you have shared on other posts equally bring back nostalgia for anyone of any age during the 60s. <br /><br />Thanks for your service then AND now!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
