Since you feel I must be one of what you call a “damned idiot,” does that negate my 8 years active duty U.S. Army, including 18 months boots on the ground Viet Nam, mid 69 to Jan. 71?
Some of us “damned idots” may not be as ignorant as you think about the military!
No, but I speak from almost 30 years commissioned experience as a Navy officer, active duty and reserved, as an NROTC DMG, and someone who served with a whole host of Canoe U. grads. And whatever failing they may have had, a dedication to country, love of the military, and desire to serve their country regardless of what boob happened to sit in the Oval Office at the time were not among them.
