What is the psychology of the soldiers in the war in Iraq and the Vietnam war?

The service people in Iraq, are members of the "All-Volunteer" (a direct side effect from the Vietnam War-elimination of the draft) US military forces. The servicemen during the Vietnam War were drafted (conscripted). Other than the color of their uniforms, and their willingness to be in uniform verses Vietnam's unwillingness to be in uniform, and the insurgents/guerillas that they are trying to eliminate, verses the Vietnam War's fighting of the regular armed forces; Army, Navy, and Air Force from a foreign country (NORTH Vietnam), their psychology will more than likely be similar to most military personnel over seas in a hostile environment.
