Lisa - A few years ago I was in Alaska wearing my 11th Armored Cav Regiment cap from Vietnam when a person turned away from me with disdain. I was with a "civilian" who had heard about our treatment but never seen it. I ignored it but it deeply disturbed by friend. It hurt him worse than me since I had seen it before but I wonder when it will end. Maybe only the last of us pass. I hope Lee never had to experience what I saw in Alaska.

[lisagodino1]

@jimtraner Hi Jim, thank you again for sharing. If I was with you I am most positive I would have felt like your friend. I am very sorry that people are like they are but they need the pray. Jim I belive Lee had a tough time and he is in heaven know and he has peace know. Jim have a wonderful night! Lisa

[Shiatar12]

im guessing its a tribute to an amarican soldier not a vietnami soldier...

[lisagodino1]

Hi @Shiatar12, yes this song was written for a very special friend of mine Lee (An a American soldier). You comment was good and can be looked at in another view. All those who served, suffer and died could tell me the things I and many don't even know that went on good and bad. And I like two think that in very special unheard of moment the soldiers came together and understood each other for that brief second. Thank you for sharing and to all the men who lost there lives during that war. Lisa

[MombasaNightTrain]

Could you please add a verse concerning Communism being contained, and RJR marching on to pay the shareholders.

It is important to look at the positive aspects, and to try to be a positive person.

Great song!

[george6490]

How is communism being contained a positve aspect?

[MombasaNightTrain]

You belong in Gitmo you unpatriotic son of a bitch. Every life in Vietnam was sacrificed for the noble cause of keeping a political ideology on one side of a jungle. People make DIVIDENDS off of Halliburton stock for Christs' sake, and here you are bitching about a beautiful song about some boy giving his life to defend a hill from a gook.

I hope the authorities see this and detain you. They should look for the dirty scumbag with dreadlocks and no shoes!

HIPPIE!

[george6490]

I still don't see your point. All the U.S. did was lose a war, and then spread agent orange because they're poor sports. Honestly communism isn't a bad thing you damn capitalist bastard. I think democracy is just a way to cover up your evil capitalist ways, honestly whats the deal for In god we trust printed on American currency; isnt that an oxymoron ?

[dkblanke]

Nice job.

Your voice makes me think of classic country women (like Loretta Lynn, June Carter-not tone but conviction) and your style reminds me some of the old stories told in folk/blue grass songs. My dad who's a vet would play them all the time.

I liked the superman in the hallway, for the acoustics, right?

Keep rockin'

This is beautiful thank you very much. Very heart felt. A fabulous thing dkblanke, thank you again Lisa.

[marine2229459]

Lee I also have cancer, PTSD and a few other things caused by Agent orange. Keep fighting the cancer think of it as another hill to take and don't give up.

[A67202Z]

How is the person that this song was written about doing now? No mention of any family or his life after Vietnam.

[IADRANG65]

My name is Lee (from the song). Actually, the song does mention some of those things that you asked about. I've been working at the V.A. at Lyons, N.J. for about 12 years. I've been battling P.T.S.D. for many years, and now, since Lisa wrote her beautiful song, I have been diagnosed with lung cancer as a result of contact with Agent Orange in Vietnam. My greatest joy, my activities that give my life a sense of being worthwhile is my work with my fellow Veterans. It truly is a work of joy.

[A67202Z]

Thanks for responding. Sorry to hear about your illness. I've done a good deal of reseach on PTSD and how it effects the family. I was wondering how your situation may have effected your spouse and children, if applicable.

[lisagodino1]

Thank you very much A672027,for wondering how my special friend Lee is doing hope you to talk more thank you again for your true concern Lisa.

[mrheavenstar]
