Whatever he did there does not matter to most Americans, however the fact that he went there does.... You can not understand, you were not raised with honor or integerity, that is obvious. Yada, yada, yada. There was nothing "honorable" about our nation's massive involvement in Vietnam. Individuals who went there, willingly or otherwise, may have acted honorably (or not), but the "mission" itself was a fraud. When the United States was defending a government against whom Buddhist monks protested by setting themselves on fire, its mistakes, at long last, should have become apparent. At the governmental and military institutional level, our involvement in Vietnam mostly was an exercise in deception and corruption. Honorable or not, how do you think your words sound to the Vets that served? Give it a break. Read for content, quacker. My comment was about the government of this nation and its military institutions, not about individual service personnel. I understood *exactly*what you wrote. *My comment stands. Harry has a *way* with words. *He also assumes everyone interprets them has he does. At some point, a gifted writer (or speaker) needs to understand that *that* isn't necessarily so.
