Hershey as history

From Sgt. Pete's blog, a nice mention of the Hershey bars that my friend Rich (a Marine, blinded in Vietnam, lo these thirty-odd years) and I boxed up and sent over to his unit in Iraq.
The kids seem to be enjoying them, which was the idea; I just hope they remember, when they go to strap on that belt of plastic explosives or plant the IED alongside the road, who gave the damn candy to them...
