Brotherly Love


 

      I had mixed feelings about Tony. It was obvious they were in love and it was
      also obvious Tony had a violent criminal past. His nose had been broken by a
      rifle butt; not in Vietnam, but in a street fight in his teens.
      Tony had gotten a deferment from a criminal sentence to the army, but he chose
      to go AWOL. .  I had an English teacher at U-Mass, who dodged his draft too.
      Mr. Rutter went to Canada, rather than answer his draft notice to Vietnam.
      It's hard to remember how controversial that police action was back in the 70's.
      But, I guess my sis is lucky to have someone, who loves her.
      Nowadays, my sister and I hardly ever talk ..
