Topic	My uncle passed away, a very delayed casualty of the Vietnam War

He was always proud of his service, but I feel like he gave so much for nothing. It was his life after the military that really mattered. Same with my grandad. He had other health issues. Had liver cancer and was told it wasn't actually his beer consumption that caused it. Rather he ate Tylenol like candy. But agent orange definitely played a factor. He was given two purple hearts but he denied both as he felt he shouldn't be rewarded for getting hurt. He did get a bronze star though --- I put my heart and soul into my work and I fear I have lost my mind in the process <cite>Sufferedphoenix posted [p:979216536] in My uncle p...
