The viewing angle of this piece is great because it is almost the General's viewpoint.

I can understand that but I have not lost anyone this time out.

There sweet may not be the right word but there is something special about the respect That the color pay their fallen fellow and the family of the fallen.

My father and grandfather both had military funerals.

I also a lot of close friends in Vietnam even though I was to young to go myself.

I have been an out spoken advocate for piece but I have also have been very out spoken advocate that our solders who walk in harms way to protect the family and country be treated with the greatest respect.

I once again thank you for your very honest art and for your service
