In my opinion since that is what we are doing here, is the History channel
is doing much more good than anything else, It seems to me to be the first and
only one to tell it like it was in Vietnam, as i can see from an out sider,
after all the liberal garbage about drugs and thugs, they portray the
soldiers as professional fighting men that won every battle and sing there praises,
that's what i see, Lee has an interesting thing going, he has portrayed
himself, and managed to secure a lucrative profession in the movie and television
business using his own understandably loud personality, And has become very
successful at it, He also does a show that puts out a ton of info in a short
time, unfortunately the type of exact details you guys feel is simply done
wrong, would not make it past the first season if it made it that far, actually
what is being accomplished is much bigger than that, he is reaching and
planting seeds for those who are interested to look deeper into the history of our
armed forces, <those who are not already experts>, and to be honest much
better then I believe any of us can do. Most of the public in general simply
does not care about the exact facts, and as sad as that may be it is true. I for
one love the channel and his show, i enjoy the theatrics and am i hope smart
enough to see it for what it is ,it is not a documentary, its a show, And
one that puts out more info to more people than this list or any of our clubs
do, My thoughts, Thanks Randy
