"It was a conflict."
It was a war when I was there. LBJ's war.
No Disrespect to you and others that served. If the politicians had left the job of breaking things and killing bad guys to the people who knew how to do it we would be telling a different story now wouldn't we. That goes for Korea too. Thank you for your service.... That is not said nearly enough by me and all the other Americans.
It fit my definition of a war. They shot at us. We shot at them. We wore uniforms. So did some of them.
