Have I ever told you my dad enlisted in the reserves to avoid the draft for Vietman primarily. He did his 6 months of active duty up in Jersey I believe. He was an MP and I think he told me it basically involved getting drunks back to base at night for him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very cool! Yeah we had a close working relationship with DC Metro and Fairfax & Arlington PD as we were always having to coordinate pick ups. We arrested & held civilians on occasion too and they had to come for them. I always loved seeing the pissed off 1st Sgt in the PMO coming for their soldier. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kzoo Posted September 23, 2020 Share #6 Posted September 23, 2020 My brother-in-law was an MP during the hay days of the Vietnam war. He spent his enlistment in Germany. He says the job was easy. No one - NO ONE in Germany wanted to mees up because that meant an automatic tour in Asia. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
