It's too bad you had to go to Vietnam against your will, but that's the way most occupations work. The average working stiff doesn't get to pick his assignments. The military's a tough one because you're there for the duration of your contract, but that's mainly because most of it is spent not doing any productive work (i.e. fighting wars) until the balloon goes up, after which - if no contracts existed - there would be a rush for the exits.
Facts not in evidence are assumptions and you make a LOT of ass umptions.
I enlisted in the Corps and am proud to have served. We now have an all volunteer military and those who are patriotic enough to serve are too precious a resource to waste on the fantasies of some nutcase who fancies them self the equal of an ancient Chinese general.
