There is no comparison. 7 1/2 years (VietNam) versus 4 months (Iraq). The Government sent the soldiers, but didn't fund or support them any where adaquately (Viet Nam). The Government today is funding and supporting our soldiers (Iraq, and all the other places we are asking them to be.)

17 soldiers killed average a day for 7 1/2 years (Viet Nam) is a far far cry from today. (Thank God!)
