Is this what Forrest Gump went through?
-
Some of them survived and are now the top military brass of the USA.
-
All those men were cannon fodder for a war in a country we had no business being in...

I dropped out of high school in my senior year in Dec '67 as a below average student to enlist in the Marine Corps; arriving in the RVN in September of '68. After retiring from the Corps in October of '88, with BS-EE in hand, I joined the U.S. Dept. of State, serving as a Foreign Service Officer from 1990 - 2012. SEMPER FI, one of Mac's Morons.

"Providing opportunities to the impoverished" is a heck of a spin of "taking advantage of people without any other options."
-
When I was drafted in 1969, if you could breathe, you were eligible.
-
The referal to them as "morons" is insanely disrespectful to those who fought unwillingly
-
The "Poor"and "Uneducated" have always fought our ward.
-
Crazy that the rich politicians children didn't have to go to war
-
"Opportunities for the impoverished" The opportunity to die?
-
Still deserve the utmost RESPECT ❤
-
“ Have you given some thought about your future, son” biggest bull💩 line ever.
-
This system is now utilized by most cities to recruit new police officers.
-
They still served with honor and deserve our respect

I served two years as an infantry officer in Vietnam. Several of my very best soldiers were project 100,000. Two were native Americans. I found them to be respectful, smart and brave. This video is a hit piece of BS.

Damn they really tried everything in Vietnam

My Uncle was drafted under this. A North Alabama, teenager who dropped out of highschool, (he had severe dyslexia). Two Purple Hearts and the Silver Star. He served in the 1st /7th.Air Cav. 1968-1971making the rank of sergeant. He is my hero

During this time college students were exempt. So were government workers and farmers. The politically connected went into the national guard to avoid combat at that time. Some with money left the country. The draft was grossly unfair. Both my myself and my twin brother were drafted. I went to Vietnam and he went to Panama. Later I went to college on the GI bill. The poor always get drafted first. Then the handicapped.

So basically Forrest Gump ?
-
Mental disabled and the improvished have always been expendable in the USA. Still are.
