The South Vietnamese Government being completely corrupt didn't help matters. We've had that same problem currently in Iraq and Afghanistan.
I was in grade school and junior high during the entire Vietnam Era. I had to register for the draft, but the war ended when I was a Freshman in High School. On our street, two brothers from a house up the block from mine were both drafted. Both came back wounded, ****ed up both physically and mentally. Both ended up being VA cases, I think both ended up being homeless dudes.
