A customer of mine asked me to make a case memorializing the Vietnam war.
I wanted to share some pictures.

Thanks,
Jim

Great case, with great tooling. I enjoyed looking at the pictures, it brought me back for a moment to some very close friends I lost in Vietnam. I remembered their families, and our youth together.

Thanks for sharing. Rep your way.

Nice case- a shitty war (most are).

Is it for sale?

Very sobering. It really took me back.

I just missed going and had many friends who were there. Some of them died and others it fvcked up for life, and the whole thing really pisses me off. I was a protester of the war but never protested the soldiers. I couldn't believe that people actually spit on and made horrible remarks to the soldiers. It was heartbreaking... the whole dammed thing. Just heart-breaking.

We never should have been there... it was about business and $$$$$ (like most all wars..) and the big business guys just got us to do their dirty work and fed us some bs to get us to belive it was all in the name of a righteous cause. It never changes. Young men will believe the bs and do their bidding and die young or be fvcked up early in life. It just sucks. I'll never believe what I'm told again.... never. I'll watch and I'll draw my conclusions based on actions. They can take their words and put'm where the sun don't shine.

Sorry for the rant... the case took me where I try not to go but probably need to be reminded. This case is serious shit. You done good Mr. Murnak.

I'm done for the night. I'm gunna sign off, get a snack, read my cartoons for some smiles before bed.

Gotta smile.... and gotta love..... or wilt.
