"American" military veterans were only "heavily" mistreated on two occasions: The US Civil War and the Vietnam War.
1. The Confederate soldiers/sailors who had fought for the south, were considered losers because they, 1) were considered traitors (by northerners) who had turned on their own country 2) had lost the war.
2. US GIs in Vietnam represented a threat to the not-yet-drafted American male, as he (the GI) had not fled to Canada or other wise successfully dodged the military draft. As one incident reflects this: "When a Vietnam vet amputee was noticed at an airport, and asked how he lost his limb, the veteran replied Vietnam; the questioner responded with, "you deserved it!" This was not an un-common feeling of US citizens against Vietnam War veterans during those times. And last, as in the US Civil War, the south lost again, and returning GIs were treated as "losers of the war."
