He served 4 months in Iraq in 2011 during the pullout. He was a truck driver who saw no combat. That’s what I heard on the news this morning - of course, it may be updated and my information may turn out to be wrong.

I wouldn't be surprised. Back in the late 70s, early 80s, I helped start my local Vietnam Veterans of America ... but quit after 6 months.
Turned out, the guys who couldn't hold jobs, did the most complaining, had the worst marriages, were most irresponsible, laziest, etc., were never in country.
But they could still blame VN for their problems, even if it was only by proxy.
