Could be. The more I think about it, I didn't get a lot of education about the Vietnam War in school. My history teachers in high school glossed over it and the political science classes I took in college focused on european history, american government, or more contemporary issues. there's only one that really covered vietnam in any depth whatsoever, and the prof was, well, a little weird (took the word "paranoid" to whole new levels).
The main point I was trying to make is why would someone think this was a good name for a company? There's nothing about the Vietnam War that makes me think, "Gee I really would like some new cargo pants!"
But hey, I guess I'm just not fashionable. I also think the Von Dutch hats are U-G-L-Y (and they ain't got no alibi!
)
