Annotation

I'm Home From Viet Nam (Chadwell, Chad) Country. Patriotic, anti-protest. Soldier's perspective, disabled veteran. Bakersfield, California, USA - Bakersfield sound. Returned home, lost both legs and his hand. Looks of pity from his family Been fighting for a good cause. How can people protest? Draft card / flag burning wrong. Offer a prayer for those who died in Vietnam
