Department of Education? This is a joke -- a more proper name would be the Department of Disinformation.
Most high school kids have no clue about what happened in Vietnam and
even less of an idea about WW II. This is what we get for overpaid
"teachers" (and I use that term loosely) who want to be politically correct.
Our young people need to know and understand our country's history -- however this seems to be a low priority. We have history "revisionists" now who tell the kids that we were "wrong" to drop the bomb and it was a barbaric act.
I've heard that the Enola Gay when displayed after a full restoration at
the Smithsonian was pelted with eggs and other disgrace. It is now surrounded with a full plastic barrier so you can't get close to it any
longer. Paul Tibbets, a genuine American hero, must be turning in his
grave.
Sorry -- I'm not politically correct -- I'm glad we dropped those bombs and
wish we could have dropped a few more. The Japs got what they so richly deserved.
