Hanoi Hilton

In another time, Hanoi Hilton was a Euphemism for a brutal POW Camp.
Surely a term the Hilton Corporation would like to disassociate itself with.

But we have news via GreyHawk-

Hilton Kicks out Wounded Vets Favorite Restaraunt

The Hilton Corporation enjoyed a 93% increase in net earnings last year.

New generation, new terms

Hanoi Hilton, noun, Those who place Greed before Honor.

Definition 2:

Hanoi Hilton - noun - A place where US Service Members are Mistreated

PS Mr Hilton, please remove me from the Hilton (Dis)Honors program, I won't be spending anymore time at your properties.

Sir,

Your people have missed the point. Fran O'Briens has become a tiny ray of light at the end of a long and horrible tunnel for those soldier's.

A different room, with different chairs, with different decorations, with different wait staff and a different cook will set them all back on their most horrible journey.

So go ahead, and cut yet another thread these American Heroes have to hold them to a place called sanity.

I'm sure Paris needs a new party dress, and priorities are priorities.

Sincerely,

Soldier's Dad

Updated Again - For the benefit of those who haven't had a family member at war.

I got my child back from the War. Physically complete. The person that came back was a stranger to me. It's been a long 8 months, either I am getting used to the new person, or the person that left to go to war, is finally coming home. I don't know which it is. Other parents have told me 18-24 months before the person that left returns.

I can not, in my worst nightmare, imagine what the soldiers at Walter Reed and their families are going thru. I can not imagine the words profit or expense or business decision coming into play in any discussion. They hang at that restaurant, on Friday nights, for whatever reason. They've given enough. Whatever plans the Hiltons have for that location, can wait. It's not like the Hiltons are in danger of being homeless if they don't act now. Eventually, those brave heroes will heal and move on.

Update 2:

I didn't notice the Hilton Name on any of the Job Listings at
Hire Vets First

It would appear the Hyatt has some openings for Vets.
