According to the U.S. military headquarters in Saigon, 90,000 South Vietnamese deserted in 1965. This number was almost 14 percent of total South Vietnamese army strength and was twice the number of those that deserted in 1964. By contrast, the best estimates showed that fewer than 20,000 Viet Cong defected during the previous year.

An unbelievable cycle. Tranh joins the Army, then he needs to go home and does. His Commander doesn't report him and collects his salary. Tranh now joins the Air Force and on and on. A truly great system.
