It must have been '69 or '70 when I was in the 5th grade. I recall my teacher saying the US had never lost a war. She went on to say we would lose that one but it wouldn't be the military's fault.

That night at supper I told my Dad, a WW2 vet, what the teacher said. He said my teacher was right. I asked why the politicians would do that. I don't remember his exact words but it went something like this... the politicians were cowards and were afraid of the news people. The politicians, news people and the protesters made him sick because of what they were doing to the courageous soldiers.
