vietnam and angry still, more even!

I went to New Zealand in 1965, year of the conscription lottery
President Johnson.
I would have gone to prison rather than go to Vietnam and kill someone who was no enemy to me
I hate that idea now 50+ years later even more than I did then.

In New Zealand 1963 I was recruited (aged 17) for service in South Vietnam by All Black Tiny Hill + News Media asking young New Zealander's to volunteer to protect our New Zealand Medical Team trying to assist people in Vietnam that were been attacked by group called Vietminh. At the time Tiny Hill caught my attention he was driving Army Scout Cars up and down the road while i was cutting Box-thorn Hedge calling for me to volunteer. NZ didn't then have conscription much much later I worked out that they were lying, they lie about lots of things, i fact the NZ High Court made a decision (2002) in NZ High Court upholding my an outstanding right to lawful discharge from the Legally binding attestation document army and I entered into on 10th day of March 1964, NZ Defence Force continue in contempt of the High Court determination...
