Dodie- In a war of attrition like Vietnam our troops appeared to be “dispensable” to LBJ’s administration. Points I make in my historical narrative, RECALL. Hope you read it.

Regarding the treatment of women in the military, your story represents another sordid chapter that needs to be addressed. I’m sorry you suffered such shameful behavior.

I was assigned to a Field Hospital in Europe. There are things that still make me angry and things that bring tears to my eyes. One of them is the wreck less thought that “the boys” soldiers were in indispensable. The other was the sexual harassment and attempted rape and assault by a superior officer. I was told, report it and you will end up in Vietnam. Some nurse who served in Vietnam was raped more than once in while there. How can that generation of women encourage nurses to serve in the military when there is no protection from sexual predatprs.
I agree about Johnson. I also would not not doubt he was involved in the death of JFK. Try to find the YouTube video of Johnsons mistress telling the interviewer what she knew about him before the assassination.
