I imagine that in the Vietnam War there were also a lot of low-quality soldiers due to the draft and the fact that many knew the war was unnecessary likely hurt morale as well. Of course, war will also force you to shape up and work together as a team to survive or die quickly. I am guessing plenty died or were severely injured in the war due to lack of professionalism, team work, and focus except in units where people volunteer for extra hardship (ex. Army Rangers, Navy Seals, etc...).
