I lived through it and was lucky enough to get into the National Guard from 1969 to 1975. We did riot training at Ft Polk and Camp Beauregard 4 times a year. Sometimes with riot batons and other times with M-1's and bayonets. We were prepared.
The protests in 1968 were worse due to MLK and RFK being assasinated within 2 months of each other. Then the Pentagon Papers came out and we realized the whole Vietnam war was bullshite.
