I went to the N Idaho Fair yesterday and back again today for some rodeo. It is less than 10 minutes from my house.

Yesterday, I saw some Vets wearing hats identifying them as Vets:
Vietnam Vet
Retired Army
USMC
Retired USAF
Desert Storm Vet
Retired Navy
USS...saw a dozen, all different ships

Today, I saw an avalanche of Vets wearing military accouterments. Hats, T-shirts, jackets. Nearly all said Vietnam. And these men were with their families, kids and grandkids. There was no organized Veteran activity. These men were just showing their colors...proudly.

I have never seen such patriotism displayed publicly by so many veterans especially Vietnam Vets.

I went to the Democrat booth and 2 people were in it. I then went to the Republican booth and had to wait several minutes just to request a Bush yard sign. The booth was packed.

Honor is back.
