For every Baby Boomer who protested during the 60’s at least 3 served sometime during the 60s in Vietnam. Also, only about half of Vietnam vets were draftees. The rest volunteered for military service.

Right. A lot of us baby boomers volunteered for the military, raised families, worked hard, paid taxes and left the drugs alone. Some of us worked for the Goldwater campaign and later voted for Reagan. If you were there in the Sixties, you would have seen a lot of us baby boomers with short hair. I doubt the hippies and lefties were anywhere near a majority of our generation at any time.
