MSI, Nam had the name "failure" written on it from the git-go, because the politicians insisted on running it instead of letting the military do what they do best. It was such "politically correct" stupidity that prevented a soldier from firing until fired upon, and then he was ordered to radio HQ from firing back. Just how many good men do you think were lost by such stupidity??

The major disaster of that war, was that the dissident civilian draft dodgers that chose to spit on our troops as they returned home from one of the meanest, and nastiest, wars, we ever had to fight. Those guys were the grunts that had to dodge the bullets, not the ones that started, not controlled, the war. I would have bayoneted anyone I saw spit on such a hero, but was never in a position to do so.

Bayonets are sometimes better than a bullet. Slower death.
