You have no idea what you're talking about.
Enough with you.
"I was reclassified....and shipped to the States within 24 hours"
For folks reading this that don't know, in Air Force parlance, he got fired for being incompetent. A FAC's first and foremost job is to know where the friendlies are AT ALL TIMES. Being yanked out of theater and shipped home within 24 hours in time of war denotes a serious screw up--and not the first.
You are assuming that it happened in Vietnam. Wrong. It was part of our own little war to the west of Vietnam where the Army and Marines were not invited. Those grunts weren't supposed to be there. If you knew anything about the terrain then you would know that you could be 10 yds away and not be aware of the other person. My vantage point was to see up the Trail, not down the trail. Something I was told over and over while being asigned to a Shrink stateside, "They weren't supposed to be there, it wasn't your fault". Yes, I was fired from that job. But not long after that I made two grades on minimum time and got two cream assignments. Officially, I wasn't supposed to be there either. But the AF Command Post knew I was. How the hell could anyone foresee this event. None of us knew for certain that the convoy was going to be either. Luck was involved. In the Army, I would have been part of the 50% club and seperated. The AF didn't play that stupid game. If we could be fixed we got fixed. The AF Doctors didn't really understand PTSD yet but we could not be seperated even had we wanted to be. As far as I can see, the Army is still playing the 50% club game and that should be criminal.
Let me be blunt, I notice your nym is willie pete. That's an Army's common term. That means you were NOT USAF. You can try and squirm on that one but WP rounds are only used in the USAF on Gunships and only on specific missions. Those little excursions were too many and sometimes on purpose. While the AF was overlooked by the news media, there were too many news reports of the Army crossing the border. Direct result was, Kent State and the denouncement of the War by Walter Kronkite. Slick Move, there Exlacs.
In a word....bullshit. I actually know Raven 2. What you are asserting simply did not, and could not happen. You are sounding more and more like a Walter Mitty type every day.
