I have always referred to myself as a Vietnam-era veteran, and only if it was germane to the conversation. I would never claim to be a Vietnam veteran, since all my duty stations during that time frame were CONUS. I did spend a year in Okinawa after the war, but again, that was in peace time. I served six years active duty in the Marine Corps and this Blumenthal makes me want to puke.

(I served and protected my country for 31 years. Progressives spent that time trying to destroy it.)
