jdaasoc-- Where would you get the sick idea that just because someone was in a war zone they stand a better chance of becoming a "sicko" than your kids smoking dope in college? If you do just a tiny bit of research you will find many very successful men spent time in SE Asia in the '60s. A good % were in SF when SF was not 'cool'. In the '60s & 70s SF was like a mop.. keep 'em in a closet and only bring 'em out to clean a mess,, then hide them again. Post Grad U of SE Asia,, '66 & '67.
