"My wife and I were watching The Early Show on Sat. July 4th. We waited til the end of the show to watch Lee Greenwood sing "God Bless the USA." He started singing and then 43 minutes early, the show was cut off, he was cut off, for a local weatherforcast. There was no inclement weather.
We were outraged that youall would see this as just another show and had to make your cuts.
I am a Vietnam Veteran. I picked up young med, killed, in their bodybags, swung them onto stretchers, pplifted them up, carried them onto our flying hearse, flew them from the artillery bases back to the morgues at BienHoa, CamRanh, TonSonNhut, from II, III, and IV Corps. I have been carrying them for 40 years now. This is a long time for young men to be dead. We don't appreciate them enough.
Shame on you."
