WOMAN’S VIET PROTEST
TRAVIS AFB, Calif. (UPI)—
A 20-year-old woman Air Force
sergeant who refused to go to
the Philippines as a protest
against the Vietnam war was
charged Wednesday with inten
tionally disobeying orders.
Sgt. Norma L. Welshans, a
radiology specialist from Lin
den, Mich., was accused of
refusing to board a plane for
the Philippines on July 29. No
date was set for her court
martial and she was not placed
under any restriction.
Bill Wever
By TOM TIEDE
GAINESVILLE. Fla.-
<NEA)—BiII Weyer lives in
a wing of the local Veterans
Hospital which many of the
patients good-naturedly call
the “Crazy Ward."
But not Bill Weyer.
He’s not crazy.
“It’s just nerves,” he says,
looking down at his feet. “I
don’t know what it’s all
about. I just can’t seem to
be natural or really calm
any more."
Weyer, age 22, a Vietnam
veteran, has been under
minimum psychiatric treat
ment here for two months.
It is a boring, confusing and
even embarrassing experi
ence. Nobody wants to admit
having troubles with their
nerves. Least of all a fellow
who has never had such
problems before. Before the
war, that is.
As a spirited, athletic kid
in Orlando, the only nerve
problem Bill Weyer encoun
tered was how to work up
the moxie to ask a girl to the
the movies. He ran with
stout fellows, got passable
grades in school, liked to
tinker with old cars. He was
a member of the now gen
eration, but not very much.
He wore his hair clipped, his
chin bare, and his clothes
were casual without being
funky.
“I was happy,” he says.
“I was always a happy kid.”
Then came Vietnam. And
places he could not pro
nounce. Lai Khe, Tan San
Nhut, Quang Tri. He had not
thought much about the war,
he had read even less, and
he did not appreciate being
asked to attend. But he was
not the type to dodge or run.
So when he received notice
he was about to be con
scripted, he volunteered for
service in the Army. Basic
training, advanced infantry
training—then the war.
“1 was an M-60 machine
gunner,” he remembers. “I
operated the weapons on
personnel carriers. I was
with an outfit (sth Mechan
ized Infantry) that stayed in
the field a lot. We were up

below the DMZ. I think I got
into the base camp maybe
nine, ten times during my
whole year there. Most of
the time 1 was out in the
boondocks with the rest of
the unlucky 5.0.b.5.”
Vietnam was for Bill
Weyer, as it is for most Gl’s,
extremely unpleasant. But
for him even more so. He
says he did not understand
all the political beefs, so did
not sit around and gloom
over the immorality of his
being where he was. “I kept
my mouth shut,” he says. “I
did my job and I just kept
my mouth shut.”
Perhaps that was a mis
take. Perhaps if he had
yelled and screamed and
kicked all the way into every
combat, as some Gls in
Vietnam have done, he
would not have knotted up
so much inside. As it was,
saying nothing, he had little
release from his fears and
angers. The only thing on
which he could relieve his
torment was the enemy,
which he took to be every
body, even civilians, in Viet
nam.
“The people over there,
they didn’t give a damn I
was there to help fight their
war. They wouldn’t fight,
they cheated us. I hated

Bill Weyer didn't
yell and scream and
complain. He just
did his job and kept
his mouth shut.
Maybe that's why he

them. I wouldn’t even touch
the girls. Other guys would
get prostitutes or take out
the hootch maids but I never
did. I was always afraid to.
1 hated the people so much
1 was afraid I’d get a girl
and bust her or something.
That’s the way I felt about
them.”
In time, the young GI
learned that the Vietnamese
were not the only people
who did not appreciate his
sacrifices in the war. When
he returned home, he found
his own people, his own na
tion, was equally apathetic.
There were no parades in
Orlando to welcome him
back. Few had known, in
fact, he had even been gone.
“I remember trying to buy
a new car. But the bank
wouldn't give me the loan
unless I had my parents co
sign the contract. Now, I
had proven myself a man in
Vietnam—but nobody cared.

group of kids with which he

in short, the world had
