Why does the department of Veterans Affairs NOT recognize the dates for the Vietnam era as being from 1961 - 1975? Congress supposedly approved these dates. The American Legion uses these dates as a prerequisite for membership. This is a real issue especially for Veterans who were drafted and enlisted in 1961, 1962, etc. for the escalating conflict in South East Asia or VIETNAM. We veterans in the gray area would like some clarification as there are a lot of us. Thanks Tbird1963 (talk) 16:26, 26 October 2008 (UTC) gene 1961-1963 (Draftee for Vietnam by an act of Congress)
