A double
When I went ?back? to college in ?71 I was a Vietnam Vet and a full time cop, police weren?t real popular on campus back then. Telling a female professor she was totally wrong regarding her perception of Vietnam caused a lot of tension and I sure got a lot of silent treatment from frllow students. Yeah, things haven?t changed much and I wouldn?t expect it to. Most professors are former anti-war protesters.
I?d say to most new vets, suck it up and stand your ground, unless your more interested in doing a lot of dating. In that case, don?t lie but never bring up the past.
Stay healthy,
Andy
