Why was it difficult for soldiers to return from Vietnam especially compared to world war 2 veterans?

The Vietnam War was not a 'popular war', especially on college campasses. Therefore when the soldiers came home, they were met at the airport by mob-protestors of the war..............and called baby killers. World War 2 soldiers returned home as heros, even tho they had undoubtedly committed atrocities themselves...............it happens in war. But in that era the whole country was behind the war.
