    Never heard about the Bataan Death March. I definitely learn something new every day, I just hope whatever I learn is worthwhile. I hope the current veterans are getting the support they need and deserve. 9+ years in Afghanistan and 8+ years in Iraq. ??? This drawing made me pause and think about the wars.

    Even though I do remember this tragic story from history, I felt the same VEe. WW II has been called the last good war. I suppose that it was just, but good? Even a just war produces horrific events - Mr. Brown's story is a testament to that, but it can also serves to remind us that young men and women are presently making great sacrifices. I too hope they are getting the support they need and deserve. US troops entered Afghanistan on Oct. 7, 2001. coming up on ten years, It is officially America's longest war.

    I don't know either. Thanks for always adding some culture Pat. All my reference come from listening to rock and roll <a href="http://youtu.be/onRobFQchS0" rel="nofollow">Listen</a> <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hG443N7lo4Q" rel="nofollow">Pearl Jam really rocked Dylan's tune on Letterman</a>
