Concerning the message "For Our Soldier".  

I'm at  a loss to describe what I feel here.  While I did not approve of
everything said or done by Jane Fonda, I don't think that a personal
attack on her in this Forum is appropriate.  In fact, I think it's the
first time I've seen  this happen in a genealogical forum.  I'm a
retired history teacher.  I agree that it is part of history but how is
it connected with this List's primary subject matter?  If I don't agree
with you that it should be on this list does that make me a supporter of
Jane Fonda and unpatriotic?  Pehaps, this would be better served on a
list dealing with Vietnam or people one considers to be traitors to the
United States of America.  That, too, is a matter of debate.  Under that
criteria, Robert E. Lee and Jefferson Davis were traitors.  Check your
Constitution for the two definitions of  what constitutes treason.  Yet,
at the end of the Civil War, how many leaders of the Confederacy were
tried and executed.  This was a war that cost, in American lives and
suffering,  far more than Vietnam.
