Mr. Chair, within the department is there any recollection of or any notes on what happened back when the Vietnam War was going on? Did the department at that time have the same agenda as it has right now, saying, “No, we don't want them”, and it was forced on them by the politicians? Were the bureaucrats resisting at the time of the Vietnam War, as we see the resistance today?
