    I was in Vietnam but this gentleman’s experiences are remarkable. What a great man, I salute you, Clyde Horn.

    Every time I hear a Vietnam Vet talk about how they were treated when they came home it breaks my heart. When will we learn that we can disagree with the war but still support those that fought. God bless each & every one of them. And God bless those sharing their stories.

    You can see by his body language how his experiences stayed with him. When he talks about that tension of hearing unknown sounds I the jungle and twitches; all I can say is Bless you, and Thank You for serving,

    This man traded his youth for wisdom, but we’re all better off having shared in that wisdom. I have no doubt he was a fantastic therapist and a force for good in the world.

    Awesome stories. Welcome home Soldier! I hate to think of how these veterans were treated. I am so proud of being a Veteran, I couldn't imagine hiding it like they were told to do.

    What an absolutely wonderful interview. Sgt. / Dr. Horn is a fascinating gentleman. Not only is he interesting and has a wonderful memory, but he's very, very funny! As a host, you do a dynamite job interviewing them, asking interesting questions getting the whole story, and allowing them to tell their story with you just basically helping them enter the next chapter.

    I just want this man to know how thankful I am that he shared his PTSD story. I am realizing that I am suffering from PTSD not related to my military service but from a family emergency that took place 9 months ago. Suppressing it has not been working and hearing his story helped me bring it to the surface. Best wishes to this podcast. It is by far one of the best on the web. Very professionally done. 👍

    Ex Royal Marine. Been in South Vietnam twice and North Vietnam once. I really enjoyed the podcast. So like many soldiers and marines in Vietnam. But also Iraq 2003 onwards and Afghanistan. Afghanistan was Vietnam Mk2 without the rice paddies and triple canopy jungle and absolutely no lessons learned.
    Good bless Clyde !

    Am I the only one to notice that at 1:03:30, while Dr. Horn's talking about being in the jungle on a patrol, there are all kinds of different birds chirping and whistling in the background audio of the interview?? Oh my gosh,wow, like being in the jungle.

    I was with the Marines in 1966, we were near Chulai at the southern end of I Corps,my platoon was sent to a Viet Nam army base to back up the RVN soldiers on Tet 66. We spent a couple days there until relieved to return to our company. While we were providing support for the RVN troops our Company were flown into a hot LZ and took a number of casualties.

    Ryan, I've only recently discovered your channel. Thank you for your service and what you are doing now. I commenced with Mark Welsh but are now working through the episodes in order. This interview with Sgt / Dr Horn, was so special and captivating. You took me from being astonished by the conditions, to laughing and to tears. One can only imagine the mental anguish of serving you country and finishing with civvy clothes, a steak dinner and taxi home and telling no one you were a veteran until 2006. Then you finished with his powerful definition of freedom at 1:42:10.

    Having lost - KIA - my own younger brother in early 1970, when the Wall was completed it was many years before I could bring myself to visit! It was visiting a mobile scale replica, in Hot Springs, AR, that got me past the mental barrier! A powerful symbol, I now recommend that any person traumatised by Viet Nam, please go and visit! Recent addition of statuary, that commemorates the sacrifices of women, is a must-see!

    Amazing how this warrior was able to tell the stories of combat , death , the jungle , etc ..................but when he got to the part about the wall he got very emotional and had difficulty telling that story , did that bring closure ?? Was it saying goodbye to his friends ?? Evoke memories pushed aside for so long ??......................Erik

    Hey Clyde. Just in case your story misses a few essentials...I will fill in. You did NOT belong in Vietnam. It was not your fight. It was an Asian civil war after decades of colonialism. You did NOT fight for my freedom, other's freedom or even your own. That is propaganda. You were essentially an invader, occupier and aggressor in someone else's country that did nothing to Americans or the US.
    Your participation to that war helped keep it going on for at least 10 years. The war did nothing but bring conflict, loss, pain and waste to America.
    You apparently are a smart and intelligent man. However, there IS a difference between being smart and having wisdom. You are an example of such difference.
