Senators Tom Dashle, Jim Webb, Bob Kerrey, Daniel Inouye, Max Cleland, Tom Harkin, Jack Reed, Fritz Hollings, Leonard Boswell, John Kerry, Chuck Robb, George McGovern, Lloyd Benson and John Glenn.

They served in the military.
In the house, 15.2% of the Republicans & 9% of the Democrats served.
In the Senate, 17% of the Republicans & 12% of the Democrats served.
In the Full Congress, 15.5% of the Republicans & 9.6% of the Democrats served.
In the house, 2.8% of the Republicans & 1.6% of the Democrats served in Vietnam.
In the Senate, 2% of the Republicans & 2% of the Democrats servedin Vietnam.
In the Full Congress, 2.6% of the Republicans & 1.7% of the Democrats served in Vietnam.
So while there are patriots & cowards on both sides, it looks like there might be a few more draft-dodgers on the left.
