Nope, story I saw said Gubmint flew them to a central point in the
states for R&R and they had to pay their own way if they wanted to go to
their home of record. Ain't like Nam where they flew you to Bangkok for
I & I.

Saw this story listed on the Drudge Report web site. Does this sound
genuine?

the mainstream media here in America, all we hear is death and
destruction and quagmire..." Ann Coulter
