You do know that Gunner is Mark Weiber, right?


Yes.

Entirely possible to graduate in May, enlist, do basic training and
AIT (advanced infantry training), even Ranger and Airborne schools,
and still be in-country in '71 just as the scurrilous, lyin',
still-smokin' reprobate claims in a current post.


Right, but that would not be "underage".

Then why did Gunner say that he enlisted underage, under a false name?

Am I mistaken?

Good question. Min age was 17 with parental consent, 18 without. I
was 17 when I graduated from HS, don't know about Gunner.


Heard on radio the president of the WWI survivors enlisted at 15.
