DimmyW is apparently off his brain damage meds again, and making up more shit.

During the Vietnam War it was strictly against military regulations for soldiers to keep their issue weapons or bring them home.

Soldiers have been known to illegally acquire government issue military weapons. But the idea that a returning Vietnam vet simply boarded a commercial flight home with a full-auto BAR over his shoulder shows us that poor DimmyW is a few bricks short of a load.

People this deranged certainly should not be in possession of guns, knives, or any objects more pointy than crayons. But it does make DimmyW qualified to work for CNN or MSNBC, or possibly become a Democrat Congressman.
You misread another post. I did not say they boarded a plane with a BAR. I said they traveled with their WEAPONS which was fairly common back then. (See addition to my post above) You might learn something.

In December 2025 an AK47 sold at RIA for a record $246,750. It was a full automatic, NFA machine gun "bring back" gun that was registered during the 1968 amnesty period that was brought back from Viet Nam by Lt. Col. Frank Walcott. You can read the whole story if you care to Google it.
