December 16, 1966 my brother got his draft letter from Uncle Sam. The following Christmas he spent in Vietnam.
There was no "Summer of Love" for him, I can tell you that.
Why did they have the audacity to send a draft letter that close to Christmas I'll never know. But just yesterday they gave the deployment orders for a whole bunch of "victims" and I was in a horrible mood about it all day long.
