To Marty's Mom
In Response To: Re: A handy web site ()

Ma'am-

With all possible respect, and from the bottom of my heart, I implore you to reconsider withdrawing from the site.

I'm certain that many of us feel this same way, we just haven't all voiced ourselves on it.

Although I cannot and will not apologize for anyone's actions except my own- we are all individuals with our own ways and opinions, and no one is perfect, or exactly as anyone else would like him or her to be.

You are honored here as a parent and mentor of several wonderful folks, one of whom we lost, and it IS in Marty's honor and remembrance that this amazing endevor was started by Mark- not just a forum for a bunch of crusty old soldiers, but a real way to share the good and the bad. I'll leave only when they pry this keyboard from my hands!

Mark has brought us together in a wonderful way, much to his credit. But the true credit for everything GOOD here is to you. You raised fine
sons and daughters.

I arrived in Vietnam too late to have known many of the heroes we lost, but am blessed with the friendship of many more, many of whom correspond with all of us here. Of the few I actually know,
I have only met one since 1970- and we met first at The Wall to honor our fallen.

There's no one bad here. A bit risque', yes.
Some of us have seen the absolute worst that life has to offer, but there is no one bad here...

Please, reconsider... ( I guess you'd have to, to have read this...) we ALL respect you, and no one would intentionally hurt you.

In humble sincerity,
Tom Lumpkin
