This guy is a legend in his own mind. It’s really amazing how many guys lie about being in Vietnam, it must be some kind of syndrome.
It has come around full circle; with the attitude toward Vietnam Veterans after the war, many that were there kept it to themselves, left it off of resumes, and even denied it if asked. In recent years suddenly it is cool to be a Vietnam Veteran so now many people falsly claim they served there that didn’t- some were never in the military at all and some were, but not in Vietnam.
