Very true, however I was merely drawing a distinction between those drafted and tossed aside, and those who the original commenter said had committed horrors abroad. This guy is more likely to have been complicit.

To be fair, given his job, this guy probably didn't commit wild atrocities. He probably stared at a screen, waiting for the Viet Cong to deploy submarines.
