Danzinger served as an Army officer in Vietnam. This stuff does hurt some folk.
We tried to prepare the South Vietnamese to fight on their own, but they had no real leadership. They fought better than the Afghan Army, but were up against forces well supplied by China and Russia. We were only entrenched there for 10 years. We were 20 years in Afghanistan and were even less effective at nation-building. (And it wasn’t like there was no history of failure by outside powers.) Time to send ALL US politicians to re-education camps.
But hey, the fright wing militias should be ecstatic. Guys with rifles (and IEDs) eventually beat two modern Armies.
Of course, one only needs to look at the post-January 6,2021 behavior of American “militias” to see that they wouldn’t fare as well. Malcontent losers, pretty much all of them.
