My dad’s a Vietnam vet (68-69 1st Cav). He always made his hatred of McNamara clear to everyone.
Idk really. I think it’s sort of the McNamara lied people died mantra. He was a traitor in my dad’s eyes and his actions led directly to American casualties. Idk if he intentionally led American forces into traps or not, but maybe that’s it. My dad always specifically mentioned him, as well as Fonda, LBJ, and JFK on his list of worthless traitors. He thought Nixon was one of the greatest POTUS’ of all time.
