R. W. Apple (Johnny Apple) Quotes
Could Afghanistan become another Vietnam? Is the United States facing another stalemate on the other side of the world? Premature the questions may be, three weeks after the fighting began.

For all the differences between the two conflicts, and there are many, echoes of Vietnam are unavoidable.R. W. Apple
