This was the "You think YOU'VE got it bad?" attitude we were given.

Another thing we heard was, "I have no sympathy for Vietnam vets because they only have to serve for a year. When we fought in The Big One we were there for the duration."

Us lefty types were seen as violent revolutionaries too. Probably brain damaged on dope. That's why we didn't think straight.
