How do the Vietnam veterans get treated?
I wish I knew what you meant by "treated?" If wounded, naturally they may have initially been treated by a fellow Soldier or Marine and/or a Medic or a Navy Corpsman. If the wound/s were serious, hopefully they would be choppered out to a Hospital. If you mean being "treated" upon arriving home by U.S. citizens , well, that's a different story. In many cases VN Vets were treated very badly in public areas such as airports by anti-war individuals or groups. That also depended a lot of what part of the Country they were in. San Francisco and Berkeley CA would probably be the worst place to be if you wore any type of a U.S. Military uniform. If you mean "treated" for wounds upon arriving back to the U.S. then they would have been treated medically at a VA Hospital.

Why was the Vietnam war so different from the other wars?
For the United States, it is different because it is the only war we lost (in that the enemy actually conquered the country) and it was the US's longest war depending upon who you are listening to, from the 1950's to 1975, or 1961 thru 1973, etc. As far as returning servicemen being treated harshly by their own countrymen (citizens), Vietnam DID stand out as being different for that reason too. However, the Vietnam War may not be alone in that department. During the US Civil War 1861-1865, returning Confederate soldiers (true, they were NOT US Soldiers, they were confederate soldiers, but Americans none the less) were blamed by their own countrymen (citizens) for losing the war, and were treated harshly by the people from the northeren states as "traitors". Confederates (Rebels) and Union (Yankees) men were re-united as fellow Americans and one nation during the Spanish American War of 1898, in which the wounds from the Civil War were considered healed, when former Rebels and Yankees fought together side by side against Spain in 1898. They, together, returned home to parades and a welcome home coming, together as a united people. In 1991, President Bush (Senior) announced to the world (we) America had defeated "the Vietnam Syndrome", when our victorious US troops paraded home from their successful campaign against Iraq during Operation Desert Storm. America was again united as a one people.
