br> Bethesda, Maryland /p> p> Jed Babbin replies: br> Many thanks to Mr. Brudno for his thoughtful and heartfelt comments on my article. To the extent that it was incorrect -- and he is right in assuming I believed an exception to the existing criteria was being granted -- I apologize, and will ask our editor to post this apology. I had relied on the comments I had received from both Jan Scruggs and from several other veterans -- friends of mine -- who were under the same impression. As I said in the piece, I do believe Mr. Brudno's brother was let down by our nation, and he -- and the rest of the POWs -- should be honored. If his death has been determined to be within the criteria for the wall, his name should be on it. I am still concerned, however, by the many other comments I have received which indicate that is not the case. /p> p> GREETINGS FROM GRENOBLE br> Re: Reid Collins's Spanish Flee and the "Splendid Spain" letters in Reader Mail's Games People Play : /p>In reference to Reid Collins' piece, I would like to reply to readers reaction to my remarks [under "Having a Nice Day" in Reader Mail's The Neoconquistadors]:
