As the war in Iraq becomes more obviously unwinnable, and the escalation in US troops continues, it is timely to remember the effect of that kind of stress on the Army during the Vietnam War. Ravaged with guilt, caught in the tragedy, angry at the lies, the soldiers and sailors rebelled.
Anyone else remember the "fragging" (murder of US officers by US troops)? the Vietnam Veterans Against the War demonstrations? the GI coffeehouses and underground newspapers?
It's all there in the great documentary by David Zeiger entitled "Sir, No Sir!" A DVD copy is available at the Moscow library.
