After the war every single single Vietnam vet should have been stripped of citizenship and deported back to Vietnam in chains to spend the rest of their lives buck ass naked out in the jungle disarming UXO at gunpoint for 18 hours a day.
Why would the US gov who sent them to fight on its behalf, turn around and strip them of citizenship and punish them to death? Kinda like saying Trump "should" punish the vets of the Iran war when they get back.
Oh, the same government would never do such a thing of course
Don't forget the politicians who sent them there and especially the corpos who profiteered
