... Did Mr Barkin serve in the Veitnamm war? (as in did his character do so in flashbacks) I need to know for my fanfic.

It's apparently clear that Mr. Barkin was in a war, but I think it's unknown in which. He doesn't seem to be old enough for having been on Vietnam, though. Maybe in the Gulf War, who knows...

Ok, thanks. I'll assume it was Gulf War.
er... I need some history on that...

Well, judging from this:  I'd say he served in Vietnam, probably towards the end ('71-'73). Note the jungle background. Especially since I don't remember Iraq having jungle like that. Am I wrong in that assumption? |

Thank's Nemmisis. I'll go with that asumption.

Am I wrong in that assumption? He doesn't seem nearly old enough for that though. At least on the show he doesn't strike me as a man who is well into his 50s. Maybe Grenada? Though, I don't think Grenada is that jungle-y. |

He said the name of the place was Jai Alai - so therefore a fictional place and not necessarily a conflict.
