    I am a Vietnam vet. We didn't fight to get medals, we fought for each other, hoping we would all be able to go home.

    I love what the Gary Sinise Foundation stands for! My dad was a USAF lifer and Viet Nam Vet. He would have been so proud of this organization.

    It was a shame how these Vietnam vets were treated when they came home. So many if them didn't have a choice in going there. They were drafted and ordered to put their lives in danger for all of us. So THANK YOU for your sacrifices.

    I don’t have time to watch the entire video right now. Is there any where it says when this interview was conducted? I have seen many videos, short and long, featuring Sammy Davis. I have read his autobiography, as well as Dixie’s autobiography. Is there anything new in this interview?
