Sound Off: Truck dogs

people can't ride back there either, also misdemeanor. my gun dog loved riding in the back of the truck and he insisted in puting his front feet up on the side. first time he jumped out at a stop was the last time he rode back there. after that he rides in the cargo area of the suv and in a cage for long trips.

Opinion: U.S. should heed Vietnam lessons

I started in military intelligence when Vietnam was winding up. I know what Snepp is saying. We have abandoned friends in Iraq and we will in Afghanistan.

Editorial: Ill-advised appeal

I did too. You should talk to some folks outside of Lawrence, you will be surprised.

Letter: Missile message

an invasion of the Japanese mainland would have killed more Japanese than the two nucs dropped. the Japanese people were ready to die for their emperor. look at what happen on Saipan and Okinawa. One of my uncles was in the 11th Airborne Division, listed to participate in the invasion of the Kanto Plain. Our losses would have been horrendous. Truman made the right decision.

Letter: Missile message

I was an Air Force brat before I enlisted in the Army. My Dad was aircrew in the Strategic Air Command in the 50s and 60s. I was proud of him than and proud of him now. Regardless of revisionist history there was a real threat from Russia. Guys like my Dad were on the watchtower for us. In later years he told me that several of the missions that he would have flown under the SIOP or single integrated operation plan were one way in to Russia.

Everyone is entitled to their opinion. Leave the Polaris or give it to the Cosmosphere makes no difference to me. There is a reason we have symbols.
