Coming Soon
Nam Vets MC
First thing I want to say, my father was a Vietnam Veteran who loved his motorcycle, and he was my hero. It was not often that he spoke of your war, but when he did I listened.
My second statement is, I cannot tell you what it means to see a Vietnam Veteran MC patch on the road. It speaks of who you were then and who you are now. I can not imagine the roller coaster ride you men have endured, the hurt and the anger. You were reviled and now revered, dishonored and now honored.
I have talked with Vietnam Veterans who have said It Don't Mean Nothing, and after listening to my dad, I understand where that comes from. Seeing patches like yours and the few other Vietnam Veterans MC's that are still on the road, affords me the opportunity to tell your story (and my fathers story) to my kids and my grandchildren.They will know who you are !
I was looking at your web site the other day after work, and explaining your story, my fathers story, to my grand daughter. The truth is, she is surly too young to understand what it was I was saying, but I told it anyway.
I understand you Vietnam Vets grouping together in a motorcycle club, and I must assume that, in some ways, it still feels like "each other is all you have".
I want you to know that I honored you as a small boy, and I honor you today. Time is not your friend and I say "Keep Riding", enjoy the road and your brotherhood, you warriors have surly earned that. Know that there are some of us who still remember and will tell your story, my fathers story, for as long as we can find someone to listen.
I am filled with pride when I see your patches on the road, in them I see my father, and for me you ride for my dad.
When I am out and I run into a Vietnam Veteran patch, whether it's a MC cube or a lone vet, I buy the beer. It's a promise I made.
It's my hope to one day have the privilege and honor to buy a Nam Vets MC patch holder his beer.
I honor and respect you all, Thank You for your service !
