"Novick: Some people have said, “Why are you going to open old wounds? Can’t we let sleeping dogs lie?” We can’t. This is too important. It’s too painful. And it’s still here. If we don’t deal with it, it just eats away at our body politic in a really toxic situation."
I will definitely be watching the documentary on Vietnam when it airs. I know it will open old wounds. Sometimes a festering wound needs to be opened to begin proper healing. I hope this documentary treats Vietnam Veterans with the utmost respect that they deserve. I know there's will be much to disagree with, and there will be much more to discuss.

I appreciate all you did. My uncle was a Marine in the early to mid-60s. He succumbed to Agent Orange a few years back. He lost a leg when he was fifty. He said at least he had a leg for fifty years because some of his friends lost theirs in their teens and twenties. I think the war gave him a remarkably positive attitude the rest of his life. He was a helluva guy.

Reading from a recent newspaper article in the Independence, MO, Examiner, I've learned that an old high school alumnus and acquaintance of mine figures very prominently in this Viet Nam documentary. Bravo Zulu, John Musgrave, and thank you for your extremely sacrificial service.
