Several readers did not know about the Mayaguez Incident. It’s worth

knowing about. Not really the Ford admin’s finest hour (I’m not sure they

by the US armed forces under difficult circumstances, and at a time when

their prestige was at its nadir. At the very least we should remember with

honor and gratitude the 91 US casualties. Here is a link with the full

story.
