CNN today (feel free to correct this) said that 8,000 National guardsmen served in Vietnam in total. How many Americans in total served there? How many National guardsmen during that time did NOT go to Vietnam. I don't have a number to refute that, but I'm fairly confident that the number of guardsmen over the ten years of conflict that served in Vietnam would greatly exceed 8,000. This sounds more like the number of casualties that were ARNG to me. One must also make very clear distinctions between AirNG and ArmyNG. While the Army NG became almost notorious during the conflict, the AirNG was flying a lot of airplanes in a lot of missions and maintaining operational readiness. Explain that remark about being notorious?
