You remind me of that old star trek where the half white guy fights his half black twin throughout time. I worry for you.

Mike.. I was a kid during Vietnam. There was nothing to "get over" for me..

But as an guy who enjoys the study of history and hopes to learn from it, we need to understand the various factors that led to N. Vietnam's victory. The bottom line was they "fought dirty" and we didn't. They invaded neutral countries enmasse and essentially occupied them while they carried on their war against the South.

It would behoove us to prevent this from happening in future conflicts.

how will you ever get over iraq.

Depends upon how it all turns out. I don't believe the ending has been scripted yet. And there is always the probability of some unforseen opportunities and/or challenges presenting themselves.
