| | Jack Mallory, VVAW 25th Reunion |
 | | Much to our relief, tiger-stripe cammies were almost not to be seen (Mike, myself, and other v-vets we talked to are all amused by an interesting phenomenon: to hear some folks strut their stuff, Vietnam was occupied by about 2 million recon marines and 2 million green berets at any given time during the war). |
| | Mike moved through the crowd, stopping and chatting; I hung around the outside of the crowd where I have always been most comfortable, talking to Dan Okada, voodoo chile, Kalí, her intern Ben, Dan Duffy, and Lydia: all of us academic V-vets or students of the era--participant observers, rather than full participants, in many ways. |
| | Mike and I were both very doubtful about attending: I pushed, and Mike resisted; then Mike pushed, and I resisted. |
