I was a college student in May 1970.
I joined the national guard in May 1971.
Those were some strange days, indeed they were.

I graduated college in May 1970 & went into the Army. After Vietnam I joined the National Guard.

As Guardsmen we received regular civil disturbance training all through the 1970’s. Must have been a lesson from Kent State.
