Personally I joined the AF in FEB 1974 and got to the Philippines in August just as Vietnam was winding down. I am considered a Vietnam ERA vet, NOT a Vietnam vet.
I was Stationed in Japan during Desert Storm/shield. So I am a Veteran of two ERA's without being in "the war".

That's good I know it may sound strange coming from a non believer but I find it very sad if someone loses faith We ALL have faith. Fairh is the basis of all action. It's what makes is humam. Without it, none of us would act except on instinct. What we have faith in--what spurs our actionf-well, that varies from man to man. But you lose your humanity when you lose your faith. You need a belief system to keep you goimg, whatever that system is.

adnj, you are right. Faith and Religion are not the same. But there are some overlapping.
