Glad I didn't fight in Nam. Hate to find out late that I was going to shoot people who look like me. Bet you the white soldiers would have discriminated against me like the blacks. Really disappointed to watch a 2-hour PBS show about Lyndon Johnson and learn that there was NO attack on an American ship in the Tonkin Gulf. It was raining hard and the radar was just showing a lot of static. So they decided to shoot everything they had at everything and anything. The next morning there was no evidence of debris or oil slinks. They make a mistake. Johnson was running for re-election and was tired of Goldwater calling him a coward. So he bull-lied and said we were attacked and took the opportunity to declare was and win re-election. What a bastardo. So many young men, women, and children lost their lives just because a President lied. There are still hundreds of thousands of live bombs is Laos waiting for future chid victims to maim and kill. BTW, I was 4-F. My handicap was a blessing.
