Interview

1. How old were you during Vietnam?
21….

2. What did you know about the experiences of other vets?
Everyone was different. We mostly did not sit around talking about it.

3. What do you remember about the media cover during the war?
The media was mostly left-wing biased and presented a very slanted anti-American view of the war.

4.do you think most people knew why you were over there?
Yes, but the antiwar rhetoric confused a lot of people.

5. What were vets like after the war?
Most Vietnam vets came home, went to college and/or got a job, got married, had kids, bought a house, raised their kids, and are now enjoying their grand kids. The antiwar myth that all Vietnam vets are homeless drug addicts living under the freeway and suffering from PTSD and the after effects of exposure to Agent Orange are a bunch of lies the biased media is still trying to maintain to demonize the Vietnam vets. In the 70s they spit on us. Today they pretend to be all caring while tell the public lies to justify their old antiwar position back in the 60s.
