It’s Hard to find oneself on the losing team - a team that “could never be defeated” - beaten by the supposed “junior varsity”. Not a DIRECT defeat, to be sure, - not as an active player, but a defeat AS A COACH to those players WE trained, armed, supplied, and once fought alongside...... As a coach and supporter (an ally), we walked off the field and stopped up our ears to the cries...... Incompetant plans and leadership, along with a feckless (IMHO) anti-war populace made the outcome inevitable. The “angst” still persists today. “Shoulda, Woulda, Coulda” still persists in my mind, even though most of us got on with our lives and tried to learn from our mistakes....... My hope is that we did.
