I am reposting my response since it is several days behind the string. I think it is important for Jim to see this. "It has taken me some time to calm down enough to reply to your last entry. I am a veteran and was a "volunteer" from 1961 to 1965. Quite frankly, I have wished that I had reenlisted since the day that I got out. I possibly could have done more. Your comments of anyone volunteering needs a mental evaulation is absolutely disgusting! Your obvious self pity for being drafted and interrupting your life at that time is deplorable, to say the least. You owe an apology to all military personnel for their service to preserve your freedom. It is not the "volunteers" that need a mental evaluation...that would be you! If we ever have an attack on U.S. soil and you need help, please let me know. I'll be happy to step around you to get to someone who does! "
