Read this excerpt from the text "Not a Dove, But No Longer a Hawk." There were many disappointments those first two years, but when I left Vietnam in 1964, I was still, to use the current parlance, a hawk. I returned to Saigon in 1965 for another year. Now I have left again, and much has changed. There were 17,000 American servicemen in Vietnam at the time of my first departure and there are now 317,000 and I, while not a dove, am no longer a hawk. . . .

Based on this excerpt, Neil Sheehan would most likely agree that:
-initially he believed in the war, but over time he questioned America’s involvement.
-the use of military force is acceptable when facing communist-run countries.
-those who serve in the military should follow the orders of the president without question.
-the destructive consequences of war far outweigh any possible benefits.
