sons of Congressmen or Senators

I was in SEA in 1968. Somehow a rumor started in my unit that my father was a US Senator.
The only "special" treatment I got, was ass chewings when I deserved them,
and promotions when I deserved those.

If you had ever run across a real "fortunate son", you would know what I am talking about.

No knock on W, just a reality check.

The actual sons of senators/congressmen would have their preferential treatment come from above - I am not sure why people don't think that the army is going to go out of its way to avoid getting the son of that congressman who votes on their money killed.
