Yeah. I seem to be in the same place.

There’s a quote something like ‘ I went to Vietnam to fight for the right of my government to take away my rights ‘ that pretty much fits my experience.

Yes, we lost both fights: in Vietnam, and here at home. I remember my father, a WW II vet, once remarking that his generation had won the war and lost the country. At least they could take credit for winning a war. My generation can't even claim that.
