Hi,

You've got two different terms mixed together.

There were "draftees" - Those who were drafted into the military. Some went to Vietnam.

There were "reservists", who were fortunate enough to get to join the reserves and, for the most part, avoided active duty. There were some reserve units that were activated and sent to Vietnam.

If you were a "reservist" and didn't attend your required training, you could be "activated" and might have ended up in Vietnam.

Cheers,
Dwight Z.

I doubt it. I know a guy in the Marines at that time who served in a base in Maine. Most probably did, but you still need people at home too. Think of all the protests you see on TV from the Vietname War. Usually there are National Guard/Reservists breaking up those demonstrations.

No they didn't. Some went to other bases at that time through out the world and some stayed in the US. cheers
