VETERANS' DAY 2014 BUT HAS ANYTHING CHANGED?
My Grand father died in WWI, which was called the Great War. As if any war could be called great. My Father's older brother lost his arm, and his professional soccer career. My dad had to leave school at 10 years of age to go to work to help the family survive. So much for the care of those who lost loved ones in the war. I met John in the early 90's as my friend John Dull put on a show at the old Rivoli theatre, and when I heard these words I cried as did most of those in the audience. Odetta was the other act that night. Needless to say it was a very moving night of songs and sadness. Has anything changed? When will they ever learn?
