It's a day past Memorial Day, but I just read something that has a lot of meaning for me, regarding war, and veterans.
My father was a veteran of Korea and Vietnam. He was awarded a silver star and a purple heart, and medical disability retirement after being wounded in Vietnam in 1965.
I'll tell more about that later, in another post, but for now, I will just say, that he worked for Peace for the entire rest of his life.
Robert Perry became one of his close friends, and it is his blog that I now refer you to. I think the idea expressed there, is one my father would like to have shared.
A Future Without War
