You're lucky you came home to tell. - And that's good. -
Once again you are absolutely correct, and as I learned in Vietnam..."I'd rather be lucky, than good."
There are 58,000 good men memorialized on the Wall, but no Lucky ones.

While he didn't serve in The Nam, he listened to some who had, and came up with this moving tribute.

@Facman hey Jody... Surely you have heard of this:
The Wall that Heals is a mobile half-scale replica of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Washington, D.C. that hopes to bring the memorial to those who cannot physically or financially make it otherwise.
Because in the month of March the truck plans to visit the city of Yountville (California).
I think it's close to your house, true?

Oh Yes, it is well known to Vietnam Vets here in the US. Yountville is in the next county east of the one I live in, so yes, it will be very close. Thanks for the heads up Luis!
