Yeah, I am not happy now nor was I when I was in country, with the way things were done in Vietnam. We wasted lives on both sides,for purely political motives, as opposed to tactical imperatives.I was fortunate not to be in a "grunt" outfit and escaped much of the "trial and error" tactics tried by our esteemed Washington politico "wannabe"platoon leaders.I did my tour as a radio operator in a Marine recon platoon.
