Adjustment and Attitudes of Vietnam Returnees.

Abstract

This report was prepared to describe the results of a preliminary study of the readjustment problems of Vietnam returnees. Purpose of the study was to establish the general areas of adjustment returnees view as most difficult, and to compare the findings with more detailed studies conducted at the end of World War II. A content analysis of tape-recordings of interviews with enlisted men revealed four major problem categories related to garrison duty; new duty assignment; deference and recognition of combat-zone service; and training new recruits.
