Rev. Sloan: Ths past week, we've been discussing the disconnect between supporting the war but being unwilling to serve. Today's guest would like to speak to that. You all know Coach B.D., but what you may not know is that he volunteered for three of our nation's conflicts? Voice: Is that right, coach? You volunteered for three wars? B.D: Yes. Voice: No offense, but isn't that, like, retarded? B.D: Offense taken.
I think this is technically incorrect. he stayed in the reserves after Vietnam, and was called up for Gulf War 1. Not sure that’s quite the same as volunteering.
