Amen - such a change from the Vietnam era - here and everywhere! 
Thanks from me too.

	A former student who is in the US navy came to visit us. He told us
of
	an incident about three weeks ago when his ship was being passed by
a
	British destroyer.
	The sailors on the destroyer appeared on deck in full dress
uniforms,
	saluted the US ship and ran up the Stars and Stripes.
	While I was born England I have come to love and respect America and
	what both countries stand for.
	I found this gesture very touching and although I cannot thank the
	sailors directly I would like to thank Britons as a whole for their
	support in these difficult times.
	Thank you.
