text: Hundreds of thousands of Vietnamese civilians dead, innocent women, elderly, and children--- and you're bragging about your service? If you and your buddies had the guts to say no to the trumped up Vietnamese war, and the Gulf wars, too, this country would be a much saner, less dangerous one. What exactly did you think you were accomplishing in Vietnam? How'd that domino-theory work out for you?
  The guys that stayed home, did alternative service, and refused to go off and kill people that had done nothing against their country are the real heroes. The others? They watched too many John Wayne films, swallowed propaganda, and went off to serve, themselves.
