Dear DCF.

Thanks for the tip---I'll check it out.

My own view, which may not be accurate, as to why there were no homecomings for Vietnam Vets is because the very issue of the war (at the time) was deeply devisive--the country was being torn apart over it---and to have any kind of public celebration etc would just provoke more confrontation.

In my own view, this war was a watershed event which changed our generations view of what our government was and how it should function.
