Kids in the neighborhood had two choices, he said: go to Vietnam or work in the auto plant. "We were the losers," he said. He was saved from the war by a favorable draft number.
"A lot of people didn't make it out. Because I made it out, and my sister (Geri, a former Clinton administration assistant secretary of labor) made it out, I feel I have this obligation to tell these stories on behalf of all of those people who didn't make it out." ()〕
