Lots of Viet Nam Veterans came home to find few jobs and a hostile population that would not give a vet a job. Carter had wrecked the economy with his voodoo economics. Gas prices were rising daily and gas shortages were common. Few vets wanted to work for the Government but with veterans preference we swallowed our pride and worked for the evil empire. They weren't coming home from Vietnam in the 1990s or even in 1977 and 1979.
Why isn't the recession of 1973 to 1975 the most relevant to your post?

I don’t know. Probably going to school then and looking for a job after 79. For all I can remember I may have been drunk.
