AMENAll of our men and women serving this great country deserve to be welcomed home like that.
Whenever I see a self-identified Vietnam vet, I take a minute, shake their hand, thank them and tell them that veterans of today's wars got the welcome home they deserved.Excellent. All of our men and women serving this great country deserve to be welcomed home like that.
Last March there were a bunch of soldiers travelling from Ft. Polk to Ft. Bliss and they stopped in Katy (west Houston) at Walgreens. I got a chance to chat with them a bit and say "Thank you." Of course I asked if any were from Alabama and one guy was so I gave him a "Roll Tide!" as well. Good stuff. I'm ready for them to all get home and get out of those God-forsaken hell holes we've sent them.Whenever I see a self-identified Vietnam vet, I take a minute, shake their hand, thank them and tell them that veterans of today's wars got the welcome home they deserved.

Never was stationed at Polk, but many of my buddies were. Don't think I ever heard a more unanimous opinion of a place.Like Ft. Polk?
Spent 2 years of my childhood there..don't care to go back.
Awful mosquitoes, obscenely hot in the summer, old run-down post, bad town (Leesville), 20 minutes from a Walmart, David Duke's old congressional district.Never was stationed at Polk, but many of my buddies were. Don't think I ever heard a more unanimous opinion of a place.
