WIKI——In April 1967, Oliver Stone enlisted in the United States Army and requested combat duty in Vietnam. From September 16, 1967 to April 1968, he served in Vietnam with 2nd Platoon, B Company, 3rd Battalion, 22nd Infantry Regiment, 25th Infantry Division and was twice wounded in action.[22]
He was then transferred to the 1st Cavalry Division participating in long range patrols before being transferred again to drive for a motorized infantry unit of the division until November 1968.[25]
For his service, his military awards include the Bronze Star with “V” Device for valor, the Purple Heart with Oak Leaf Cluster to denote two awards, the Air Medal, the Army Commendation Medal, the National Defense Service Medal, the Vietnam Service Medal, the Vietnam Campaign Medal and the Combat Infantryman Badge.
WIKI..... at the San Sebastián film festival, Stone said that many Americans had become disillusioned with Barack Obama’s policies, having originally thought he would be “a man of great integrity.”
He said: “On the contrary, Obama has doubled down on the (George W.) Bush administration policies,” and “has created ... the most massive global security surveillance state that’s ever been seen, way beyond East Germany’s Stasi”.[97]........
And here you can get fired for refusing to celebrate gay pride. It is time to push back against homofascists.
I’m aware of his military service. That doesn’t excuse what he later became.
I once briefly met Stone in the street in the bar/restaurant area of Hong Kong where foreigners tended to congregate. He was there for promotion of his movie “Natural Born Killers.”
It was late in the evening, and he had 3 very attractive Chinese women (I would only guess B-grade actresses) with him. Clearly not a homosexual.

Could be - I had wondered about that line
[He said: “On the contrary, Obama has doubled down on the (George W.) Bush administration policies,” and “has created ... the most massive global security surveillance state that’s ever been seen, way beyond East Germany’s Stasi”]
He ain’t wrong about that. What did he think Barry was gonna become? He was obviously a Communist/Marxist from the get-go.
He’s got credibility as a combat veteran no question of that
