I, also, enlisted in the Army, Figmo. I did not stay for 20 years. I stayed for 3 years and then worked at the Veterans Administration for 36 years helping veterans. I think that counts for something, don't you?

Being smug is very unbecoming. Yes, I was drafted and I did not run to Canada.
Yes, I was in one of the most Gung-Ho units in VietNam. I was patriotic before I was drafted. I waited to get drafted before I enlisted because I had a paternal obligation that I had to see through. I'll match my military record with you any day.
