My Time With Uncle Sam Gayle a Thibault

Almost five decades have passed since "my" war. We old Vietnam vets greet each other with a knowing and wry "welcome home." People recognize us by our caps and T-shirts and small lapel pins, and some say "thank you for your service." I'm proud to have served my country, even if it meant going to Vietnam. Our country suffered and Vietnam suffered. I did my best in dangerous and volatile situations. God was with me, I'm sure of that. I was not hurt. My family prayed for me and for that I am grateful! I went and I served and this is my story!
