Howdy

Got me a long story, Too long for now.

Went to Nam as a 21 year old boy. I was present at My Lai, part of the 23rd Infantry division. Wish to share amongst fellow people.

Looking for more Nam vets I guess.

I'm a member of other forums, I can never meet enough new people that were there

God bless.

Hey GeorgiaBoy, Welcome to the Forum!!

Just wanted to say hello, I can't though help with finding what you're looking for, but maybe someone around here may be able to . . . all I got to offer is experience with alcohol addiction!!

Great to have you onboard though!!

Welcome to SR GeorgiaBoy. We all have different backgrounds, but we all have a similar goal ( sobriety ).

Thanks for the Welcome. Been sober for over 25 years now (26 years 213 days). Hope I can can give something back here. I wish to share with all sorts that have saved themselves from death through drink. It would be particularly special to me though if there are any vets here.

I am not a veteran but i know there are definitely some who have been here on SR during my time. I'm sure some will read your post and hopefully make a connection at some point.

I'm glad you joined the family. I would suggest starting a new thread with the title "looking for Viet Nam Vets" and you might get some responses to that.

Congrats on your long term sobriety.

Hi GeorgiaBoy - welcome

I'm not a veteran either, but I'm sure you'll find support and understanding here
