In this day and age when you hear about so many young men burning their draft cards in protest of what they prefer to call "lost freedom", Jim Jensen was in Vietnam doing his duty to protect the real freedom we enjoy in this country. d, During the same period of time when stupid, and dirty hippies parade through the streets of some of our cities "in protest" of imagined ills of this country, Jim Jensen was wading through steaming rice paddies to do what he could to win freedom for a people who can hardly recall the meaning of the word. During the time when so many college kids march to riot burn and demand more than equality from colleges and university faculties, Jim Jensen marched, too. But his march was with full battle dress against an enemy who has yet to learn that the most important parts of equality are the last seven letters: QUALITY. No, I didn't know PFC Jensen, but I'd wager a small fortune that you didn't hear him wimper when it was time to go. Nor was there ever a thought in his mind to burn his draft card, or to sneak off to Canada. He may have beleived, as many of us surely do, that the war in Vietnam is perhaps wrong, but he didn't use this as an excuse to dismiss himself from the human race. ...By the Editor.
