Generations of Valor

Posted By Blackfive

Anne Morse is writing an article for the National Review Online and got an idea from B.G. Burkett, author of Stolen Valor.  She would like to write about the sons and daughters of Viet Nam vets winning the War on Terror.  To me, it sounds like a great opportunity to highlight the great work our men and women are doing now and honor the service of their fathers.

If you are or know of a veteran of the War on Terror who is the son or daughter of a Viet Nam veteran, please contact Anne.

You can read some of Anne's other articles here, here, and here.

  • Uber Pig
    AuthorLogo-pig.jpg
    Uber Pig was an Infantryman from late 1991 until early 1996, serving with Second Ranger Battalion, I Corps, and then 25th Infantry Division. At the time, the Army discriminated against enlisted soldiers who wanted use the "Green to Gold" program to become officers, so he left to attend Stanford University. There, he became expert in detecting, avoiding, and surviving L-shaped ambushes, before dropping out to be as entrepreneurial as he could be. He is now the founder of a software startup serving the insurance and construction industries, and splits time between Lake Tahoe, Boonville, and San Francisco, CA.

    Uber Pig writes for Blackfive a) because he's the proud brother of an enlisted Civil Affairs Reservist who currently serves in Iraq, b) because he looks unkindly on people who make it harder for the military in general, and for his brother in particular, to succeed at their missions and come home in victory, and c) because the Blackfive readers and commenters help keep him sane.
