It wouldn't be like Nam.
Well folks here is a little something to think about.
'Half of the Iraqi security forces are insurgents.' Doubts Grow as G.I.'s in Iraq Find Allies in Enemy Ranks 27 May 2007 The pivotal moment came, Staff Sgt. David Safstrom says, this past February when soldiers killed a man setting a roadside bomb. When they searched the bomber’s body, they found identification showing him to be a sergeant in the Iraqi Army. "I thought, 'What are we doing here? Why are we still here?'" said Sergeant Safstrom, a member of Delta Company of the First Battalion, 325th Airborne Infantry, 82nd Airborne Division. "We're helping guys that are trying to kill us. We help them in the day. They turn around at night and try to kill us."
Remind anyone of the early '70's till the end in '75?
I wasn't there due to when I did graduate from High School, but I was in the Army after that and heard first hand from many others who were there, this same comment.
