I was not a Viet Nam vet, did my time before then in peacetime and the cuban Missle crisis. This country made it's biggest mistake when the politicians in Washington were allowed to make military decisions instead of the military officers in the line of fire. How the he## could a politician sitting on his fat, greedy behind in Washington know what was/is needed in a combat situation? Their policy is to let the enemy have the first shot, then ask him to identify theirselves and the U.S.soldier has to get permission from Washington fatasses to return the fire.

The military discipline would teach most of them some needed obedience and loyalty. They suffer from a lack of both discipline and responsibility. The military also teaches their people respect for authority and team work. something many kids need badly today because they are growing up almost raising themselves in some cases.
