To simply have served in the country of South Vietnam while serving in the U.S. military services. Many joined the Army, so the initial service was three years. Others were drafted, and had to serve two years in the service. Draftees who came home after serving a year in Vietnam with only two or three months remaining on their 24 month service obligation were given 'early outs.' Others serving from '59 to '75 are considered Vietnam Era Veterans -- serving in the military during that time, but not actually assigned to units in Vietnam.

Why are veterans forced t fight in wars?
It's the military job to fight wars (not the policemen, doctors, lawyers, politicians, store clerks, school teachers, baseball players, fishermen, golfers, or construction workers, etc.). After serving in the military, the personnel have earned the title of being a military veteran.Veterans aren't forced to fight wars...they already did.AnswerThere have been times when Veterans have re-joined the army because their experience and manpower were needed.During the American Civil War, the 154 Tennessee Regiment(CSA) was called the Veteran's Regiment, I believe.During the Napoleonic Wars and even during WW2, when the wars began to drain manpower, the veterans were called into service. Some of them only served in support organizations.
If you are a military contractor and you worked overseas is that considered as you serving time for the military?
Civilians work for money. Military personnel are serving their country...money comes second; that's why sometimes men are drafted...low pay, sometimes even no pay (it will be paid whenever the government can get the funds to the men/and or a place to spend it). Civilians can quit...up until the end of the Vietnam War, military men could NOT quit. It would be the stockade if they tried. Civilians are working FOR the military, FOR MONEY; they are not IN THE MILITARY (unless drafted). The ONLY benefit the military man will get will be retirement at age 38 or 39, if he joined the service at age 18. That will be far and above the average civilian who still working at age 62 thru 65. Military personnel pay now (hardships), play later (early retirement benefits). Civilian personnel play now (freedom to quit, freedom to make more money), PAY LATER (by working until they are in the 50's and 60's until they can receive a pension).
