I had a "runnin' buddy" in the '80s who claimed he was there, but wasn't. I never would have known different had not a third friend of ours, who indeed did see action during the Tet Offensive, wink at me one night at the bar and tell me that our friend was just trying to impress the girls. I thought he was a damn good sport about it, all things considered.

I, too, am not a veteran.
