Johnny Boy Herring claims he served as a combat engineer during our war
against Vietnam. I've asked him several times how many Vietnamese people
he killed with explosives or even his rifle, but as far as I recall, he
has never responded with the facts.

I suspect it's because it's none of your business. He was drafted
and served. You lucked out.

But, according to Salmonbreath, being lucky is dishonorable...

Harry, Engineers arn't combat troops, They build stuff like roads,
bridges, etc. not that doesn't mean they're not also trained in
fighting. Don't personally know, but with a bit of speculation, I'd
say John 'probably' didn't kill anybody.

I understand that, and I also understand they usually aren't
"engineers," as we think of that term in the construction industry.
Combat engineers also blow things up.

The question was rhetorical; I wasn't expecting a specific answer.
Herring's disdain for those who haven't had any breaks in life for
whatever reasons and his disdain for the children of those people made
me wonder whether he "learned" that while associated with military
actions that killed more than a million Southeast Asian peasants.

I had two great-uncles who were engineers. They both drove steam
locomotives at5 the turn of the last century

Well, I'd have to disagree about the first sentence. They're called Combat Engineers for a reason.
But, I'm not going to delve into specifics.

Well yes, John. I didn't say you didn't blow stuff up.

but "Combat" [usually] isn't in the picture that is unless the orders
are specified. At least that's what I gather.
