Mack, . . . one of the things we learned in Viet Nam, . . . you can teach some people to use a weapon and they will do a seriously good job of defending themselves and those around them.
We also learned that there are some folks who simply are not made up of the genes, moxy, protoplasm, . . . whatever, . . . that can and will take another's life, . . . regardless of the situation. They sat and cried, . . . crawled under the bushes, . . . got up and ran, . . . among other things.
We also learned, . . . oftentimes there are no signs ahead of time who will be which that are 100% dependable.

There it is, Bro, and damn well said.
I don't doubt that kind of thing happened in wars before Viet Nam, but I
wasn't there to see it.
I saw it in Viet Nam. It created a sad state of affairs.
