The term “stand down” is a military term used often with the Vietnam War, where troops got the opportunity to Stand Down from combat operations and take care of personal hygiene, get clean uniforms, enjoy warm meals, receive medical and dental care, mail and receive letters, and enjoy the camaraderie of friends in a safe environment.
