Chapman's Viet Nam Experience

General man retired from the marine corps in 19 71. He didn't take a lucrative job in the defense industry, like so many ex military brass do. Instead, he goes to his boss, the secretary of defense, and asks for help in finding another job in government. In 19 73, he's named commissioner of what was then called the immigration and naturalization service. Now, why does he do that? Being head of the marine corps is a job of enormous prestige.
