Well I was 27 and I was ashamed of my government. To have let all those brave men die in combat and then give South Vietnam to the communist!
The Army drafted me in 1969. I was,and still am in favor of fighting communism. But I wasn’t keen on the idea of a war that American GIs were not permitted to win. So drafting me was the only way the Army could get me to Vietnam. We were betrayed by our own government.
