Remembrance Day

[Sumpter250]

I don't think he ever reconciled the reasons why people could be persuaded to inflict harm upon one another instead of respecting each other's differences.

I think the "reason", was most clearly stated in the prologue to" The Lord Of The Rings- The Fellowship of The Ring"
"....and nine rings were given to the race of men, who above all things, desire power "

I was one of the lucky ones. BuPers never sent me "in country". I served with men who later died in Viet Nam, this Remembrance Day / Veterans Day, as every year I will remember them.
" Freedom requires ( demands ) eternal vigilance ".
