Servicemen deserve all the support we can give them. Things really hit a low during Vietnam and the despicable treatment our soldiers received from the public. My dad was in the Army and stationed in Alaska in the 50s. During leave once, he hitchhiked all the way from Alaska to Texas wearing his dress uniform and carrying a duffel bag. Times were certainly different. I am happy though that soldiers today are beginning to get more respect again.
