I’ve been watching this with my father in law who joined the American Air Force to avoid the draft. Absolutely brilliant series by Ken Burns and Lynn Novick, but watching my father in law re-living his steps through to signing up is fascinating.
I’ve learned so much about the politics and build up that I never knew. What an absolute clusterfuck by the American governments and military of the time. President LJ and General Westmoreland come across particularly badly throughout.
