Fragging not only helped to end the war in Vietnam (I believe people in the streets and the loss of business favor were the other two factors) but it was the unspoken reason for a "professional", i.e., unconscripted, military.Can't say what is really in their scared little hearts (that having dropped down out of their palpitating chests) but somewhere in Florida there is some computer collecting rectum and weeny flow information to summarize to George W about the state of his military morale.

PS Before I get hammered for under selection of causes for the end of the Vietnam war, let me add the meta-reason: nuclear war was the only thing left and in those days it was unthinkable.
