[Rhodes22-list] Veterans and water levels

[ed kroposki]

Mr. Rummy:

	The last time we had a Viet Nam discussion, you drove tanks.  Now
you reject medals.  Are you flip flopping too?

	Did you notice how fast the lake went down when they opened the
flood gates.  Just north of you the official totals were 9" to 12" inches.
And, Lake Toxaway which feeds into Jocasse which feeds into Keowee which
feeds Hartwell got 14".  

	Tell us all how are the leaky roofs?  Hopefully, that subject will
not be political.  

	For those interested in sailing on Lake Hartwell, all the islands
have disappeared.  A lot more open water.  See:

Just a quick note to clarify the medals debate. John Kerry did not put  
himself in for the medals. All applications have to have a thorough
description  of 
the heroic acts which have to be signed by the company officers that viewed

them. Medals were not given out freely in Vietnam. As a clerk typist in a 
combat  unit in Vietnam, I typed the paperwork for these medals. Many were 
rejected and  few were awarded.
Purple hearts were a different story. Medical staff/Officers submitted
these.
