I know your dad was in the navy, not the army, but is it true that soldiers tended to have brief combat more often as to fewer days with more intense combat during Vietnam. What was your dad's task on the ship? Is it true that navy ships are like sort of like living in a jail? Also, what were your thoughts on the intervention on Vietnam? By then the conflict was being viewed rather negatively, and I'm wondering why you decided to join since you didn't specifically say you were drafted. Did you have a family member in the Navy during WW2 that you wanted to follow in the steps of? Assuming you weren't drafted, what was your purpose in enlisting?
