Never served. Almost joined George Jr in the Reserves.
In those days of and after Vietnam, most who came back never did talk. But after the movie Apocolypse Now, suddenly many started talking. Apparently that movie was close enough to reality that some who did serve felt others would understand the conundrum that was Nam.
I have seen same with some WWII vets. Got enough information to know their units were probably fully involved. But they talk as if their service was entirely patrol and guard duty.
