Again, that is no different than what happens now. And you are not being entirely truthful about the Vietnam era either. Most if not all infanty went through an advanced course before being delivered to their units and any rate with a specialty (engineer, comms, artillery) most certainly had an "A-school" or whatever you call it in the army.

It should also be noted that you are pretending all of the US Army was in Vietnam when in fact not even the majority of it was there. Most recruits went to units stateside (or in Europe) where they would have many months of OJT before they rotated to Vietnam.
