Sadly, I believe they (the troops) were behind the 8 ball from the beginning when they were not allowed to do the job they needed to do. Rules of engagement? To me they do not belong in a theater of war.

Same damn thing can be said for the troops over in the middle east right now.
YOU had parents who taught you the truth. Many didn't. Everyone celebrates the troops coming home today. Not so with Vietnam. The Leftests, dodgers and cowards blamed the Troops. It soothed their consciences. Make those whose shoes you aren't fit to shine the bad guys and claim some BS, heroic altruism for your actual selfishness and/or cowardice.

No draft now so no made up "moral objection" or denigration of the Vets is necessary. JMHO.
