Though I was a Coast Guardsman during the Viet Nam war, I did not serve there. Boats on behalf of those who did, I thank you. When you think of our participation in numbers its not exactly overwhelming but when you think of the size of the service, it is incredible. During those years the Coast Guard Guard averaged about 35,000 men.
So we had a high presence there relative to the size of our service.
