    In Memoriam

    Elvis dies 16 August – Long Tan 18 August.

    Somehow the two things are linked and not just by the calendar.

    Elvis died of indulgence as a consequence of becoming very, very wealthy and extremely famous.

    Long Tan is prima facie about determination and loyalty, but Australians were really in Viet Nam to prop-up the interests of wealthy business men.

    These two things seem significant to me.

    I am a big fan of the early Elvis (before he hunka-hunka prostituted his talent).

    Long Tan wraps up the Australian and New Zealand perspective of the whole Viet Nam thing.

    Maybe it is something to do with my generation?

    In not just your generation RobE ( I am so much younger than you )

    Your comments are very true... I do think this country is finally starting to pay the respects it should to our Servicemen and women who did so much for us.
