Period. br> — SLG /p> p> IF YOU PLEASE br> Re: Nicolas Ziener’s letter (“Resumed Talks”) in Reader Mail’s A Delicate Phase : /p> p>In response to Mr. Ziener’s comments: Mr. Ziener, we were not, “beaten to the ground” by the Viet Cong, unlike the French. We were beaten by a liberal Congress that refused to let the military do its job. The Kennedys, the Kerrys, and the rest of their ilk were the ones responsible for the communist take over of southeast Asia. According to Vietnam’s commanding General, we had them beat, but our own Congress’s refusal to fund the war anymore is what led to their takeover. Yes, Mr. Ziener, the French helped us in our fight for independence. That was probably the last brave thing your government ever did. br> — Greg Goff br> Casper, Wyoming /p>
