The only ribbon he would get is a defense ribbonHe says he is 64.
Assuming he was drafted at his earliest possible age, it would be 1972.
Basic training, then training to go to Vietnam puts him in 1973.
Possible, but America was in withdrawal in 72 and had only 50 troops there in 73 as we completely withdrew.
Just a wannabe blanked ass who may he was a reservist. In the military, one doesn’t have to go to the place we are at war with to get the medal for it or be considered a “Vietnam era” veteran. So he could have been in any branch, and as long as that branch was there, he would get a medal and credit for being there. I doubt highly this dude is anything more then a local res drunk and meth head pissed off that his Indian check may not come.
