hello th1b.taylor, dirtfarmer here
I was in during the Cuban crisis, but received basic training at Fort Jackson S.C. There, some merchants had signs in their stores, " No Military allowed". I understand that it is not the same level of hatred as you experienced, but it was hatred, non the less. If there was anything that could change your experience, I would that you will experience it, if not, then know this, that Jesus suffered persecution also, and he was crucified. It is my belief that those!!!! that avoided the draft by leaving the country will receive a just recompense for not obeying God by serving their country, as God has commanded.
I don't watch movies with J. F. I know that we are to forgive, but she has never apologized to the American people for her trip Viet Nam. I pray that she has asked for forgiveness from God.
If I HAVE SAID IT, THANKS FOR YOUR SERVICE TO THIS COUNTRY.
