Language Training
I agree 100%. The Vietnamese language component we took (4 hours a day, six days a week for six weeks) at the MATA course at the JFK Special Warefare School at Ft. Bragg (1966) in preparation for advisor duty used Vietnamese nationals who had an excellent graps of the language, pronunciation, slang, amd a heavy dose of the cultural component. We left there with better than a 500-word vocabulary and a partial ear for the tonal quality of the language. This effort at Michigan State (well-funded by the DoD since before Vietnam) is wishing well to pour money down.
