Content: Americans "opinions [were] sharply against the war in Vietnam" (“The Siege of Khe Sanh”). Because Americans didn't support the war, those vets who had fought valiantly in the war came home to a nation that was bitter towards anything about the war (Jones). How sad for those valiant men who had fought so willingly and courageously! North
Better Late than Never by Del Jones
"Most of them were very young -
And now, it seems such a waste -
That war accomplished nothing
And has left a bitter taste. Those who did survive came home
To a country which turned away -
We didn't know how to greet them -
We didn't know what to say. They came home to a nation
That said it didn't care -
Said it didn't want to know about
What went on over there." --Jones
Beginning in 1964 and growing in later years, anti-war protests began forming. When President Johnson issued the draft, because he felt that America needed to take a more aggressive action against North Vietnam (“The Vietnam War”), many young men refused to fight, which led to what is known as the Draft Dodgers (“Draft Dodgers”). " Protests erupted on college campuses and in major cities at first, but by 1968 every corner of the country seemed to have felt the war's impact" (“The Vietnam War”). This was a devastating war of its own because it was a war at home.
