"As a vet I’d say that was a bit self serving."

Really? You think that it was just fine that able-bodied young men, the same age as us, should have avoided military service while we were fighting a war?

I'll never forget how it felt to come back on leave from combat in Vietnam and see all those guys. just standing around enjoying the day, watching football or something.

Yes, I'm bitter.
