Question 7 The Blue Water Navy Vietnam Veterans Act was signed into law in 2019. My answer Agent Orange Relief act is correct.

I was still in my last year in high school in the 12th grade in 1974 and the draft was planning their annual calling out of the draft numbers for the next unfortunate group. Every night on the news it was about death and a war that no one wanted. It never did make any sense.
My dad was in the Navy fighting the Japanese in the 1940’s and survived, barely. I made up my mind just before the new draft call that I would rather join the Navy for 4 years than hump it in the jungle for 2 years.
But as luck would have it, or grace; the draft stopped. A lot of upstanding good men with crew cuts and smiles in the upper high school classes from 1966 to 1973/74 that lost their lives. We all looked up to these guys…
A year later when I graduated in 1974 most of us wore bell bottom pants, tie died shirts and long hair…

Only got 3/10 right. I knew I would do poorly, but it was more a learning experience.

I am at 5 for 10. The war is Viet Nam was a huge part of my young life. I should have done better. Recently finished Leave No Man Behind by George Galdorisi. Great book and a Viet Nam refresher.

I graduated from high school in 1969 and my late husband in 1970. We were both very anti the Vietnam war (which was never officially declared if I understand correctly) but not anti-America. I can remember my dad (a WWII veteran) exclaiming in frustration that “they’re trying to fight this war with one hand tied behind their back!” So much loss of life, crippling injuries and worst of all damage to the trust of much of an entire generation of young Americans in America’s basic goodness and founding principles. My husband had several college housemates and friends who were veterans. When he died of cancer last May I donated his brand new clothes to a local Christian charity that provides housing and services to homeless and needy people–many of them veterans. It comforts me to think of some now-aging Vietnam vet getting to wear them. And we definitely support giving vets the services and benefits they’ve earned and deserve (far more than illegals!). May God bless our veterans and service members, and may the Trump administration help turn this country around. Psalm 144:15.

6/10 correct. I was just a kid playing and riding bikes with neighborhood friends. I was not really aware of world issues. I do, however, know that our Vietnam Veterans were NOT treated well upon their return, and even now.

At the age of 18, I had my first real job, the summer of 1966, working for the draft board and sending “greetings from the President” to the boys headed for Viet Nam.
