I KNOW I AM LATE WITH THIS POSTING, BUT I STILL WANT YOU to view this video. It is not only a wonderful tribute to our veterans, but we hope you will try to recognize a couple of GWTW familiar faces in the video.
Of course, Max Cleland, a well-respected Viet Nam veteran (and former Senator of Georgia) who lost both his legs and an arm while serving his country, narrates this video. Max, another GWTW fan, has attended many GWTW functions in the past and does another wonderful job in this video. (When you have a few minutes, just check the Wikipedia web site and read more about this war hero -- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Max_Cleland)
Also, see if you can find Mickey Kuhn (Beau Wilkes, age 7) and Patrick Curtis (Beau after the war) in the video. Hint: Mickey was in the Navy and Patrick in Marines (a highly-decorated F-4 Phantom jet pilot, flying 283-1/2 missions over North and South Viet Nam). Patrick was shot down and badly wounded in 1968 -- (Mickey is quick to point out that he was rescued by the Navy!)
