That stuff about Vietnam vets coming back to be spat at and jeered is a lot of right wing propoganda.
Having lost their war with a million vietnamese slaughtered the right has been busy ever since rewriting the history of the war and the protests against it.
I do, however, remember thousands of vets in uniform and on crutches etc throwing their medals and commendations at the White House in disgust at what they were ordered to do in Vietnam.The protest was organised by Vietnam Veterans Against The War.The year was 1971.
