♥ Do not mistake covert action for missionary work. ∼ Henry Kissinger
♥ At night, there’s a breeze. The river is beautiful. You could be forgiven for thinking there was no war; that the gunshots were fireworks; that only pleasure matters. A pipe of opium, or the touch of a girl who might tell you she loves you. ∼ Graham Greene; The Quiet American
Broken Arrow by Tom Freeman
I didn’t want a monument,
Not even one as sober as that vast black wall of broken lives.
I didn’t want a postage stamp,
I didn’t want a road beside the Delaware river proclaiming Vietnam Veterans Memorial Highway.
What I wanted was a simple recognition of the limits of our power as a nation to inflict our will upon others.
What I wanted was an understanding that the world is neither black and white, nor ours.
What I wanted was an end to monuments.

Some folks inherit star-spangled eyes
Ooh, they send you down to war, Lord
And when you ask ’em, “How much should we give?”
Ooh, they only answer, “More! More! More!” Yo
∼ Creedance Clearwater Revival
Well come on all of you big strong men, Uncle Sam needs your help again,
he got himself in a terrible jam, way down yonder in Vietnam, put down your books and pick up a gun, we’re gunna have a whole lotta fun.

The B-52 deploys smart bombs. Dropped from thirty thousand feet, they hit the ground every time. ∼ Lt General Charles A Horner, U.S.A.F., Gulf War commander
♥ If life were predictable, it would cease to be life. ∼ Eleanor Roosevelt
When the band of brothers re-united.
♥ They tended me in places of danger, they watched over me while I slept, and with the last pair I journeyed home.
