Same deal up here, transplanted 'stump jumpers' and 'ghetto fodder', but sooner or later me, 19 in '65.
Sooner USMCR, no later for part time college boy.
Still sorry for all those who went and who are now names on a wall or too badly damaged otherwise to live as long as me. It never had to happen.
I went from agnostic to ambivalent to 'WTF?!', much like most of America in that order. Watch it play out, exactly like that, this Fall on PBS's "The Vietnam War".
