I didn't know about my dad being conscripted until I was a teenager. If he had gone, I may not exist. But even without his deferment, there was still the medical side to consider. He might have failed that, due to being in a bad car accident the previous year and having rheumatic fever as a child (heart problems on Dad's side of the family seem to affect the males. Not many have lived past 70).
3 of the actors in this episode were in the horror film The Howling 3! Lee Biolos who plays the soldier Haylan in this episode, and Barry Otto who plays Douglas Goddard, the father of the family.
Murder, rape etc didn't just happen in the Vietnam war but unfortunately happens more than it should in other wars. I agree military forces should be held to account and punished accordingly.
No wonder LBJ declined to accept the nomination for another term as president. He wouldn't have got back in anyway, not after the negativity and the chants of: "Hey, hey, LBJ! How many kids did you kill today?"
Another actress who appeared in both was Imogen Annesley! She played Annie Phelan!
That poor girl FFS I was hoping she would be rescued by the Australians
It's interesting to see this conflict from an Australian perspective
yes it is
Yes
It really is

Yes, and it annoys me how so many of you Y*^ks don’t realise how we assisted you during this conflict.
And -we did assist the US defence in this conflict. Never forget that.
