Swift Boats
I was really happy to see this article in this morning's NY Times. A group of Vietnam Swift Boat veterans is trying to resurrect the honor that should be associated with their service.
My brother-in-law, William, served with honor and bravery on a Swift Boat, and it's not fair to him that the first word many people think of when they hear "Swift Boat" is "liar". There's still a lot of anger about what a very small group of people did.
