Robert F. Turner at the Washington Times notes that on Monday afternoon the Pentagon will host a "Welcome Home" ceremony for Vietnam veterans at the Vietnam Veterans Memorial on the Mall in Washington D.C.
In his piece Turner looks back at the Vietnam War and addresses some of the myths that have come out of the war.
