How did they blame joe soldier that was drafted for the war? Did they think the war existed because of these soldiers? They should have all went to jail instead of serve? What? It makes no sense to me. Is there or was there ever a justification given for the treatment of joe soldier when he returned home in that era?

Sure, the entitled infants who made up the baby boomer generation didn't like the war. That was their justification.
