All these Vietnam videos are basically BS. These veterans willingly chose to go to an unwinnable, illegal war. If they say otherwise they are promoting a falsehood. A lot of these people push the image that they could or did win the war, but the "politicians" and the "people back home" lost it. Vietnam was a national American disgrace, tragedy and defeat...and they share in the responsibility of it. The politicians and American people saw that the war was not being won, or was unwinnable. The US never really had the "hearts and minds" of the South Vietnamese people...who they supposedly were fighting for. They don't talk much about the war crimes they committed against the Vietnamese....OR even against their own personnel. Lastly, whether these guys won or lost...the Vietnam war had absolutely NO effect on American freedom, security, safety or way of life. They did NOT sacrifice anything for my...or your freedom. These veterans present themselves as victims and wrongly treated. They are big boys and went to a country to kill or be killed. They shared in the failure. Now they want to be recognized for their "sacrifice" through videos, Honor Flights, endless trips to the Wall in DC or to Vietnam itself. They never grew up and really moved on. They have made themselves an embarrassment to themselves and my generation.
Mr. Special Forces. I was "special" too. I was a Vietnam/Draft resistor. It was b/c of people like me that brought a quicker end to the war that brought waste and loss to the USA for 10 years. What was "special" about that? It saved American lives. The war that this guy is talking about did nothing for American security or safety. I don't need a video...and neither does this guy.
God bless him. Those are some stories. Never heard a vet talk about Vietnam with such glee. Now get him a cough drop..
Loved it. A really special interview. Thanks.
Get that man some water!
Would be a good story but couldn't stand all thet coughing, sorry.
Give this man a cigarette or a cough drop...Liked the interview,til the coughing was just too much...
