So who  today in the United States knows 
about the stoic and selfless friendship  its northern neighbour has given it 
in  Afghanistan? 


Well I do.  I served with them in Europe and, expecially, when the  Russians 
invaded Czechoslovakia in '68.  I also remember the contributions  of the 
Belgians, the British, the Dutch, and the (West) Germans.  We need  all the 
friends we can get in this world even if we don't all agree all the  time--I still 
don't understand parts of Metro New York and Florida, but they are  still 
Americans.
 
I wish all those who have served and who are serving in the Armed Forces  
(and Merchant Marine and Coast Guard)--including Canadians on Remembrance  
Day--the very best.  Especially those who served in the unsung conflicts of  the 
cold war and, most especially, the Korean "Police Action."
