Somebody asked me what I think should happen to somebody who treats veterans TODAY, the way veterans were treated immediately after the Vietnam war.
This is what I said.
5 years of community service (in the military)... mopping navy decks, after 8 weeks of military style boot camp.
(yes, 8 weeks of military style boot camp, not military training boot camp).
Permanently unranked... No possibility of gaining a rank.
And they are housed in the oldest, longest decommissioned, nastiest barracks that is still around, for low cost purposes.
After 5 years of mopping navy decks, taking out the trash, and washing cars.... they pay a $15,000 fine and then they are Dishonorably discharged, unless they join the Military, and they can only do that if they can prove that their attitude has changed, and that is hard to prove and at the sole discretion of the Navy psychiatrist to determine.
and if they do join the military and are accepted.... they are precluded from going on missions, and they achieve rank much slower than other enlisted personnel.
