That post says more about your choice of friends than it does about the other 2.5M Vietnam vets. There were undoubtedly some bad apples scooped up by the draft who managed to gain fame beyond their numbers during that war. My Lai was the only proven mass atrocity & the person responsible received just punishment.
Low-life soldiers picked up by the draft who committed war crimes on a daily basis were few & far between & drugs(plentiful in that part of the world) played a role within that small group. Even one atrocity falls below the USA's standards & that is the primary reason the draft was abandoned & replaced with a volunteer army. Our volunteer military assures a quality fighting force that has excellent motivation plus self discipline.
Your post is most likely pure fabrication since many Kerry supporters are currently spinning themselves into the ground. They don't permit facts to get in their way while doing so.
