Pogue is what A current vet I met used yesterday.

Not necessarily derogatory, though some do use it that way.

What is important to me is that somebody bothered to show up.

I will say that having an infantry MOS and SFQ'd plus 18 months actually carrying a weapon through the bush along the Cambodian border gives me a somewhat different perspective.
Close up personal experience with death at that level makes one appreciate being alive.
Knowing you still have months ahead and you could be next tends to make one a bit jumpy.

Glad its in the past, but I'd do it again.
