A Truth Journal: Our Freedom: Living Courage, Dying For Honor: Celebrating Vietnam War USMC GSGT Charles "Chuck" Perkins: From Denny: Today is more than just that long needed holiday vacation with the family, fun backyard barbecues and country music festivals. It's one of those few days of the year that Americans come together to remember the fallen in our too many wars over the past few centuries of our young country.

The sanctions won't work as long as the Pentagon, Congress and Wall Street cockroach around them...
