[QUOTE="sl1000794, post: 194798, member: 6974"] Never served. I graduated from UND in Jan. ’68, BSCE and had a job offer to work in Viet Nam for Morrison Knudsen (RMK-BRJ.) I needed a deferment to be accepted because the initial contract was 18 months. No dice. I ended up getting drafted and went to Ft. Lewis for basic training just after Labor Day ’68. In basic the Army found out that I should not have passed my physical and they cut me loose. I went to Viet Nam on Dec. 1 ’68 and worked until Memorial Day weekend ’72. RMK essentially shut down operations in the summer of 1972. RMK-BRJ had a contract with the US Navy to build whatever the US Military (Army, Navy, Air Force or USAID) needed that the Corps of Engineers and SeaBees could not do. When I returned to the US I worked construction until 2008 when I retired. [/QUOTE]
