drafted in 69, spent 22 months with 10 in Vietnam.
Have no idea then or now why the killing on both sides that I took part in. Just a waste and a bad deal. Maybe in the after life I can ask those who put us there why. Glad to get out and no thoughts of staying in.
However, the service was and has been good to me. The memories are the good ones with the bad ones just the way it was.
I guess overall the experience was something that help shape me, I accept it all and whatever.
the long hair freaks were right but I was also right to volunteer for the draft and a war zone. It was just the wrong conflict. db
