During the conflict with Vietnam most of the American public wasn't even sure why we needed to send so many of our troops across seas. In past conflicts everybody had a side and wanted to support their decision. However with the introduction of the Vietnam conflict a large majority of the population was asking questions on why all this came up so sudden and for unknown reasons. When Japan attacked on the United States this came everybody the morral they needed and the reason to want to defend their country. However Vietnam was different in that the draft made most of these young men not even want to join the military and most were forced to support our country. How can you expect these men to be in the right state of mind after having to fight for unknown reasons? You can't expect somebody to change any of their morals and leave them asking questions. However having this common bond with the man next to you would really make feel to have a bond and want to help out the others who are in the same situation as yourself.
