I was wondering!!! The Vietnam war officially ended in 1975, that was 28 years ago. Now if that guy was 18 years old (the youngest age you could enlist) when Vietnam ended, that would make him at least 46 years old. Giving him the benefit of the doubt, lets say the youngest could be 44 years old, did he look like a 44 year old Vet, or am I a victim of faulty logic?

The Vietnam era officially ended May 7, 1975. The Vietnam Era GI Bill ends the Vietnam era on 1 January 1977. I knew a couple of people who called themselves Vietnam era simply because they joined the militaty during the late 1970's. They got plenty of arguments on that one, as they should have.
I saw this Clymer on "The Factor". He's plenty full of himself.

BTW, I think the last American troops were pulled out of Vietnam in 1973 (although the War ended in 1975 with the downfall of Saigon to the North Vietnamese). Was Stinson even in Vietnam? He looks to be in his early 40s or late 30s---Much too young to have been a Vietnam Vet. Somebody out there please find out the age of Stinson.

I know the guy. He graduated from high school in 1971, was born 1953 or so. He was an "administrative specialist" (clerk-typist) in the Air Force. Don't know whether he ever set foot in Vietnam. Possible, but I doubt it.
