My mother thought that I'd gotten screwed on my National Guard enlistment (I still think so!) and kept trying to get me out. I helped a friend get CO status after I finally did get out and she applauded that. She never said much about Vietnam, but I suspect that since her three sons were in the service within 24 hours of each other (my brother and me activated with our National Guard company and my youngest brother off to Air Force basic training the next day) she wasn't very happy with any of it.
