It is possible on the internet to find a world of information that would seem to lend credence to ANY position I would care to take.
A nice way of saying the net has a lot of BS floating around. I wouldn't doubt a 90 day wonder got slammed by men who refused to let him get them senselessly killed, (not enough NCO's to teach the looies how to survive)but you make it sound like it was an everyday occurrence. I have many good friends who survived Nam and all I've talked to paint a different picture than the anti-war advocates who weren't there. Politics should never be a factor in war.
