Vietnam seemed to school us for about 20 years. I hope Iraq and Afghanistan will do the same.

There wasn't the social turmoil... they learned a lesson in Vietnam and no draft, just volunteers. So the military industrial guys will try again ... but may be constrained by fiscal problems next time. I hope.
