Yes.
They were called baby killers, murderers.
They were spit upon.
They were shunned.
Even through the 70’s the military in general were treated like crap.
And it wasn’t until the 80’s that Vietnam vets were recognized, and welcomed home.
My dad did two tours first was in ‘65 with the 1st Cav, second was in ‘68 during Tet with the 82nd Airborne.
The default position is “fake news”. Anonymously sourced words verses PDJT’s actions over the past four years. Yeah, tough call...
This Atlantic “story” is nothing but a textbook Leftist hit-job. Always anonymous. Always coordinated. And, as we’ve seen with all the other anti-Trump hoaxes, always fabricated.
The Left knows how @realDonaldTrump defends & revers our vets/military—so they attack his strength. https://t.co/OgVbnxq8gz— Pete Hegseth (@PeteHegseth) September 5, 2020
Great job @PeteHegseth, one of a kind! @foxandfriends— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 5, 2020
“Wasn’t there Dem congress people saying US troops were terrorizing/murdering...etc. during the Gulf War II? I can’t remember who and nothing comes up in google (imagine that).”
Yes.
The EX-Marine murtha was one.
Dick(less) Turdbin was another.
This is Kavanaugh, all over again, exact same tactics.
As an Iraq War Veteran and Air Force Reservist, I am proud to join my fellow servicemen and women in defense of our Commander in Chief, @realDonaldTrump, against the unhinged fake news media.https://t.co/YjFRFo8lpK— Doug Collins (@CollinsforGA) September 5, 2020

Jim, that was the first thing I brought up on FB this morning. The shoe is on the other foot now and they are having a fit. Thanks for helping to keep the memories of what the troops endured from the left during that era.
Stickers in rest rooms of the liberal scum sounds like a great mass statement.
There has to be some way to counter it.
Your average black person doesn't get what I heard in that time.
Pee away pal! Lean up against the headstone and drop a dookie too!
The Democrats and the Left as a whole are without reason or accountability. . .
and absolutely will not stop – ever - until America is DEAD.

That is why I’ve told every relative and acquaintance that I don’t want any contact whatsoever with democrats. And I’ve put these printed signs on my property:
NO DEMOCRATS
ARE WELCOME
DO NOT ENTER
1968-1973, We were not allowed to travel in uniform to reduce the attacks.
I’ve heard this for decades. I traveled thru SFO and Monterey Airport in uniform several times in 1969 without any hassle.

Well, you were certainly a lucky minority.
We’ve all seen, read and heard the countless stories that prove otherwise.
Oh, and welcome to FR.
I was spit on and called a baby killer by a white mother pushing her baby carriage thru the Dayton OH airport. I told if I was a baby killer her kid is next now, and disappeared.
Carter left us without fuel, the barracks were cold, no ammo or repairs for equipment. In the 82d Airborne Division G4 we did Temp Loans of equipment just so our Div Ready Force 1 could have 100% combat ready radio’s, jeeps, mules, etc. Boy were those lean times.
