I should know better than to watch another Vietnam War documentary. I'm always saddened when I hear Vietnam Vets lament the War. Parrot the claim that it was lost. That no good came of it. That it was not justified. I don't give a damn when propagandists and journalists (but I repeat myself) make these claims. Of course, I wish they wouldn't inasmuch as journalistic reports are the first draft of history. Indeed, much of what is taught in schools today remains unfairly influenced by this first draft. It takes history a long time to make up its mind and reveal the truth.
