In fact, I sincerely believe that in the not too distant future, membership in organizations like the United Daughters of the Confederacy or Sons of Confederate Veterans will be unwise. This is just the way things are. Trying to fight it is a losing battle. Just my opinion....................... KyBelle43, You write this and it make me wonder why we fought Hitler, Japan, heck, why don't we just let the N. Koreans have the Nuclear Bomb and hey Sadam....have your way too....Why should we fight...it's just a losing battle. I know it is just your opinion, but gee why just roll over. Things don't have to be the way they seem, we can fight for what is right and good. I spent a couple years in Vietnam and came home and almost felt the way you express, but hence I have found that giving in means they don't have to fight to have their way. I don't think that grand old ORganizations like the DAR and SCV and the UDC and other's will ever die, as long as we have a voice. Claiborne Scholl Nappier
