3. Thank you!

[Control-Z]

5. Can you tell me how to retweet?

Please?

[mahina]

8. click on the link above

And select "retweet", if you have a twitter account. It will go to those who follow you. If you dont have a twitter account, you can right click the image and save it, and post it on facebook or email it.

It takes a little while to build followers on twitter though.

[Control-Z]

15. I do have an account.

Though I've only sent one tweet ever. Lol. So I have only a few (automatic) followers.

Do I need to be signed in to retweet? I don't see a retweet option at the link.

[Tx4obama]

18. I'm back. Sorry I was gone for a bit. Were you able to do it ?

[mahina]

12. also

Twitter is free.

[mahina]

16. Right under the all cap text, see 'retweet' and the little red arrows?

If you click that, you send that tweet to your followers.

OK!

[pinboy3niner]

11. Thanks! I rarely post on my FB, but I posted this.

Thanks again.

[pinboy3niner]

19. P.S.--The first comment I got was...

"That says it perfectly!"

[mahina]

22. Right?

Thinkprogress rocks.

[pinboy3niner]

23. My friends rock!

That comment came from a woman who lost her husband in Vietnam--while she was pregnant with his daughter.

[mahina]

24. Whoa.

I remember waiting for Dad to come home when my little brother was born. He deployed a week after. Much aloha to your friend and her daughter, and of course her lost husband. And to you.

I wish the generations could share what we've learned along the way faster. I see the vets coming home now experiencing many of the same struggles, trying to as my Dad said, put down the hand grenade and pick up the calculator, with difficulty.

25. My friend's daughter is a member of 'Sons and Daughters in Touch'

It's an organization that brings together men and women who lost a parent in the VN War.

My friend's husband initially was classified as MIA--he was a Naval aviator whose plane went down with no rescues or remains recovered. She traveled to Paris during the peace talks in an attempt to obtain information from the North Vietnamese delegation.

When I first met both of them, decades ago, I got my friend hired by a group that supported the Vietnam Veterans Memorial. We've remained friends since our first meeting--and I just had a msg from her tonight on my FB.

Both my friend and her daughter are doing very well. They've come to terms with their loss. Not that it isn't difficult for them when those anniversary dates roll around, as it is for so many of us.

The sharing you mention is happening. Many of us VN vets are reaching out to our returning vets, and I had one of them tell me that he wouldn't have survived if it hadn't been for us. We all wish it could happen faster, but it's happening.

Much aloha to you, sister.

[duhneece]

30. Me too!!!

Can you imagine how I grinned when I saw whose company I'm in??? Yay for us!

[sheshe2]

14. Indeed! nt

20. That is perfect.

[niyad]

Passed along. Thanks.

Since I don't tweet or facebook, I'll let y'all pass it along.

Thanks for posting!
