The more I learn about the Vietnam War, the less and less sympathy I have for its veterans. I'm at the point of "They weren't actually spat on, but they should have been. Probably flayed."
Unless you deserted, mutinied, or defected, you're on par with the Wehrmacht at best and more likely to have been the SS at worst.
It was a genocidal war in my view.
The US literally thought they could win the war by just slaughtering their way to a better KDR.
meanwhile they slipped in "oh by the way you don't need to see a rifle when you're tallying up your score!" which is just stepping diagonally into regular old genocide
