“Flashback time”. In ‘Nam we were supposed to “guard” a political rally. The Saigon (US) candidates were backed by our officers on the stage. The opposition, NOT VC, just against Thieu, weren’t. We were told that if any “trouble” started, we were to shoot everyone in the crowd!! Within a few weeks, all the opposition candidates had been assassinated in that province. Makes me think of Trump’s lies and his backers almost every day now.
