Catching Up...

I'm off to see my active duty son for a week. So, I'll blog a couple times from there - and the impressions I get from him. As I've mentioned before, he's been in several war zones, and I'm very proud of him. And when I return, I'm going to start reviewing the book, The Bonus Army by Paul Dickson & Thomas Allen, that came out last year. Every veteran should read it, and others interested in veterans' issues. A preview: What you'll find out is that we have a long documented history - going back at least to World War I and before - of trampling on our veterans, after asking them to go to war for us.

It's time it stopped.
