3. Anybody remember the "5 O'Clock Follies" from Vietnam? |
|
The ones that the military ran that inevitably proclaimed victories? You know, 8000 VC killed and one GI medivaced for hangnail? Someone took the time to add up all the dead "enemy" they announced and discovered that we had destroyed the VC and the entire North Vietnamese Army twice over.
Trust the military to tell the truth? About as much as I trust Boobya to be "compassionate".
