52. Yes, I was there in 1968 and 1969...

I had Friends among the people there, too. It hurt leaving them. The war was not unwinnable, but some of our tactics were wrong. As you know, we had many of the same problems then as now, as in Rumsfeld allowing Wolfowitz to scoff at General Shinseki's estimates of troop strength needed for the occupation.
