I came home in April 1969. There were no parades. There were no "thank-you's except my thanks to the taxi driver that got me home from the airport. But that's okay. I got over it until I heard this song. I am finally welcomed home. A catharsis effect has happened to me that is indescribable. Thank you for your beautiful song.

I came home from the Army in 1973 thinking that I would be swamped with job offers but to my surprise I found that most places did not want veterans, citing too many drug and alcohol problems. I recall going to a Marathon Refinery on a day they were supposed to be taking applications and soon realized that only relatives of current employees need apply. Unions were especially bad about allowing only friends and relatives to join. I got a job digging ditches at $3.50 an hour while non-veterans got some really great jobs.

That went on for years too. I was ordinance on the F/4s. Basically a bomb loader. Ya outa seen the look at the state employment service when the guy ask me what I did in the Air Force. Not much civilian application huh? Didn’t really get a decent job until I was 35 and no longer put veteran on my job applications.

Just as God is not of, or in, the realms of time, space, or matter, the same applies to heaven. It's a matter of faith. BTW - It's also a song. Similarly, do tiny little bluebirds fly beyond (over) the rainbow? There's no tangible evidence of that, is there?

The U.S. gov dumped on us because the American polulation put enough pressure on the gov to cut n run . Most troops we gone from vietnam by 1973 , the vietnamese people caved after the U.S. dumped on them and surrendered . Not us , so it wasnt for nothing . Thanks America for turning your backs on us .

I knew a veitnam vet. I bumbed into him one day and as i apologized to him i noticed his hat. It said veitnam veteran on it. I told him, “Im sorry for bumping into you sir, and in case you didnt hear it when you came home, thank you for your service and welcome home.” He started crying and we sat there talking for a long time. It turns out he lived in my town. Every day rain or shine or snow i would go to hus house and just sit with him and talk. We talked about the weather and how my schooling was going. His lovely wife always had an ice tea waiting for me. Out of the blue one day he started talking with me about what he endured in nam. He would only talk about it with me. No one else. To this day i dont know why out of all the people in the world he would talk about it with a 16 year old kid. But i learned a lot from him. I cried the day they laid him to rest. Only one of his brothers came. All the others had gone before him. Sometimes it dosent matter how tough you think you are or how strong you think you can be, sometimes a kind word is all you need. Im happy i knew the man i called a friend till his dying day. Rest in peace joe. I miss you.
