I just ask them what was imprinted on their dogtags. I figure if they get that right it earns them a few bucks even if they have no idea what di di mau means. :-)

42 year old homeless Vietnam Vets can be trusted with your credit card.

That's almost as good as the sign a 19 year old beggar was holding on a freeway on ramp two or three years ago. His neatly worded sign said "Desert Storm Vet, Homeless, Please Help". I was laughing so hard I almost wrecked my car.

If someone told me they were a 42 year old Vietnam vet, I would be laughing too. I don’t believe there ARE any 42 year old Vietnam vets.

If you managed to get to Vietnam as a 17 year old in 1975 you would be 57 years old today.

I had just turned 22 when I went to Nam. I hated every minute I was there. I couldn’t wait to leave. I counted the days.

Yes but, what if he “self-identified” as a dog?

“”personally I don’t know that I’d trust doing credit card””

Please tell me that people wouldn’t be that stupid!!! If so, they shouldn’t even have a credit card as they simply don’t understand much of anything! This guy apparently prefers panhandling to working and I wonder why???? Hmmmm!

Few things surprise any more, but this does to some extent.

Michigan, from a guy who spends every waking hour walking to, at, and walking home from work. Vs a lazy guy who takes credit cards over his Obama phone.

BTW, his coat looks very clean for living on the streets.
