My father is a 70 year old Purple Heart Vietnam Vet. He wears his hat all the time and always gets positive reactions from folks. He likes the attention and you know what, that is OK. There are GOOD people in this world and stories like this prove it. Thank you for your service and thank you for posting such a positive story.

I agree it’s a good feeling. It’s a shame you didn’t receive the appropriate gratitude back then though. At least that’s one thing society learned after Vietnam. For the most part all troops are treated with respect now. Rock on, Brother!
