It happened a _lot_ then. It's probably the same people doing it. I remember Carl Vuono telling me that the most frightening moments of his life were walking through JFK airport in uniform during Vietnam. I've heard many people who protested the war say that they weren't attacking the soldiers, but I've _never_ heard one of the soldiers say that, even ones who ended up leading war protests and would say - quite frankly - that they had great difficulty doing so because many of the other protesters didn't want to associate with ex-soldiers. I can't imagine the mindset of the people involved, and I honestly don't want to - even the thought of it makes me feel vaguely dirty.
