<p>Can someone give me a long analysis of the psychological pressur our us troops had to go through in the vietnam war??</p>
<p>Is there a reason for this?</p>
<p>I just wanna get different people's analysis of it</p>
<p>Okay...</p>
<p>My father fought in the Vietnam war. He was drafted straight out of college. Had plans and scholarships to attend law school. He had to give them up. To this day he wonders what his life could have been had the war not happened. I wonder as well. </p>
<p>He talks a lot about the incompetence of the "plan" for war. That ****ed a lot of people off. That essentially they were thrown into a guerrilla war in the jungle with a stupid plan that got a lot of people killed, to put it not so eloquently. But when you are there the most thinking you do is to stay alive and how to best do that. I think that was a lot of pressure, being in another country, in a jungle environment, fighting a new kind of war. Seeing and knowing about people being killed/tortured. I can only imagine torture. </p>
<p>I think more of the pyschological issues arive after returning from war.</p>
