Lt. Dan wanted to serve just as a veteran. He thought it was his fate to fight and die in the was, just like all the other males in his family did. it was his mission to die for his country while in Vietnam. As for Bubba, he went to war to fight and leave. He was just there to serve because he had to. It wasn't his life dream to die in the war like Lt. Dan. He had future plans to own a shrimping boat and pursue that life dream. So in conclusion, yes Lt. Dan and Bubba relate to the war in Vietnam differently.
The pre-Vietnam Lt. Dan had few similarities to Gump. But after his legs were amputated he had a handicap as did Forrest.
Bubba Gump is a shrimp company that got its name from the 1994 movie Forrest Gump. In the army, Forrest meets his friend Bubba, who wants to open a shrimp company and fish for shrimp. Bubba dies in the Vietnam War, so Forrest starts the shrimp company with Lieutenant Dan instead.
A hippie.
I believe he said it rained for 4 months.
During his tour of duty in Vietnam, Forrest was shot in the buttocks.
While in Vietnam Lt. Dan told Forrest and Bubba to 'keep your heads down and change your socks every time we stop'. In that tropical climate infections can become lethal within hours, so dry feet was important. The rule about keeping heads down is obvious.
Lieutenant Dan wanted to fight and die in the war, that was his prerogative, it was his life's mission to die for his country. Bubba made plans to be a shrimp boat captain when he was done in the war, his prerogative was that he would go on to better things after serving.
