Did you manage to grow into any realisations or did you leave it as it was? I'm (feeling) super rebelious and am interested about Vietnam, I also feel like ...... NATO politics atm. Salute.
For those wondering if it wasn't obvious already, this song is talking about how a lot of teens were drafted to Vietnam without volunteering but rich/politician families' kids didn't have to.
@@chadbradthadanddad We can see crazy shit today with all the wars going on around the world. I think it is better for us to have the choice to see so we can voluntarily go about understanding the evils of something that is very real.
I know some dude on the internet that have some WWI footage of camera that were in a tree during a trench assault. I think I've saw a dude getting bayoneted and falling but most of dead were people from artillery. Soldier were always running dying but still running, it was horrible.
@@ketis06 I was playing army guys pretending to be in a car chase so I hop on the bed of the truck shooting a turret to the enemies almost falling to my death from the bombs. THE BOMBS MAN, IT WAS THE BOMBS.
Neb We supported the wrong side.I understand at the time the Communists were overall worse but with Vietnam it actually properly needed communism over democracy.
My grandather served in Vietnam, tank mechanic, till the day he passed, he loved this song, it was the only thing he could fondly remember about that time in his life.
I was too young for Nam, but I enlisted in 1974 at 18. Did Infantry AIT at Fort Polk, OCS at Benning, followed by jump school. Then Ranger school and off to 1st Bn 75th Infantry Ranger (A) at Fort Stewart. Was selected to attend the SFOQC Q-Course at Fort Bragg in 1980 at the USAIMA Army Institute for Military Assistance (predecessor of JFKSWCS) earned my beret and went to 10th SFGA in Bad Tolz. I’ve been to Grenada, Panama and Kuwait (Saudi). I wound down my service first with COL Beckwith at standup of JSOC, then as a MAJ under COL Jerry King at Fort Belvoir in ISA.
You put in a lot of time and advances a long way during your time in the army. A uncle of mine who became a paratrooper at Fort Jackson liked every day of his time in the army and was offered a pretty good deal to stay in the army if he world reenlist but he decided to come home get a job get married and start a family.
During the Vietnam war Fort Polk was your road out and straight onto Vietnam for most service men. I ask once why Fort Polk and i was told the heat and humidity was close to what you will experience in Vietnam.
I was stationed at Monkey Mountain Vietnam in 1967, I was 17 when I arrived and 18 when I left, somewhere along the way I was exposed to agent orange, a defoliant used to spray the jungle. I am now 73 years old and have a VA disability from the exposure to Agent orange, nasty stuff. This video brought back so many memories, good and bad. To all Vietnam vets everywhere. Stand tall, Stand proud. God bless you and your families.
Denny, on behalf of myself and my father (II Corps, 1965-67, Hawaii-trained M60 doorgunner), I thank you for your service and second your encouraging words. You, sirs, will never be forgotten by Generation X at least; I'll make sure of it.
Denny thank you for your service. My late husband was there in 1968, he passed away in 2007 it was lucky enough to be married to him 28 yrs. I always had lots of respect for all you veterans Thank you
as a soldier I agree; the training we do is incredible, but I'd shure as heck would prefer to do demonstrations alongside the Spetznatz and GSG9, our Canadian outstanding troops. we don't want to fight each other, we want to work together, do great things, but actually go home, all are skills can be applied to search and rescue

"This song is 100 times better with helicopter sounds" ....and some incoming F-4 Phantoms in the background dropping there napalm bombs on some pesky farmer villages of the vietcong. ...and the whole LZ smells like black burned bbq.... Damn thats dark. Play that song and watch this offical bombing clip from the air strike missions --> ruclips.net/video/hks39OeJYAs/видео.html
I think it is a little known fact if I'm not mistaken that Bob Ross was a in the Air Force in nam and when he went to the VA to help him he began painting to heal him from the constant nightmares I may be wrong
Haha,...we need to go over there and smack the devil outta them.... I used to love watching him paint,...all of the little happy trees, and then he would smack the bush, and be like just smack the devil outta him...haha... 😂
My uncle was Sent to Vietnam 😢 He was only 18 years old straight out of high school. Me and him talked about his days over there and he said it was rough,and then he came home just to find out the government wasn't going to do anything to help no one. That was a smack in the face 😠
My father was stationed in south denang, 69-73 . He was recon, his platoon Sargent was Thomas from Knoxville Tennessee. He came out of San Diego Marine base. My dad passed in 2020 but would still love to find his platoon mates if their still out there or their family members.
@@angkhoanguyen6114 We all live with our demons. The man was doing what he thought was right... We are now all aware of the atrocities committed by both sides of the war... But yes it was not our place to be there and most Vietnam vets regret their actions at that time...
I was 5 when this song was released. I remember giving the guy who read our water meter a soda because it was hot, and my mom said he got back from this place called Vietnam. he lost both hands and just watching him open that ice cold bottle of coke with his prosthetic hands made him a superhero to me.
Wouldn’t really say it’s against war, it’s more about how some people can avoid the draft because they are rich, while the lower classes had no choice.
Everyone who made it home and is still with us needs to be recognized and appreciated beyond words but by love and support because we are grateful for any part you played in that conflict as they liked to call it but it’s not like that now and it’s time you get the recognition you deserve.
Did he live in Michigan? Just read that he was a Tigers fan and bartended at a few posts that appear to be in Mich. Thanks for sharing his name. God Bless.
RIP brother. When men were men and did what needed to be done. Dad was armored and I was an unfortunate son in Iraq. I love my country but HATE my government.
Excellent video for a timeless song. One of the absolute worst wars in world history. Millions of prayers for every service person who was there as well as their families and friends. They will NEVER be forgotten. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
I grew up during Vietnam. I remember hearing adults talk about it and all I understood was it was a far away place where bad things happened. Then I watched The Deer Hunter. I was never the same. Innocence lost forever. 😢
PhoenixAngel429 I don't recall that movie, I like *American Graffiti II*. All in all War is BIG Biz! It's all about CONTROL of everyone "Period" - BHO or who ever the *F* he is..
Jake Fisher my dumbass schools never have enough time to teach us about nam id like to know why and how were the soldiers treated terribly? forreal i dont know shit about veitnam war and im a freshman in hs.
In 1967 I was at Travis AFB visiting my Brother who was in the Air Force. As Troops were being deployed to Nam thru the front, they were unloading aluminum caskets from the back. All the Soldiers were staring. Very sobering.
@@fgarz7148 well actually vietnam didn't really kick America's ass, you see, since back then north vietnam was Communist, being supplied by red china and russia. Even when America did damage vietnam would just keep on getting more supplies, hence America just packed up and left. It doesn't mean that America had its ass kicked, America just left south vietnam to be taken over, but if you're referring to something different like the spike traps and tactics the Vietnamese soldiers used then yeah
Fuck the looters and rioters, actually. Goergie is a tragic case, but a BOGUS cause. The cops caught doing it are currently being processed through the justice system, and oh...BTW....the number of B-on-B killings surpass W-on-B killings by at LEAST 100-1 (I'm being conservative here...pretty much assured it's GREATER than 100-1)...but you'll NEVER hear outrage from the LEFT's little snowflakes, will you? 'Cause THAT narrative doesn't fit the LEFTIST talking points....hopefully WORKING AMERICA is smart enough to separate the BS from reality...and viciously KICK the LEFTIST losers to the curb (again!) and STOMP their guts out for one final time in November.
Some but Not All of my high school friends went to Vietnam and if anyone of you have ever been to a military funeral it just takes your breath away and is incredibly sad. I have to where each corner had a branch of the service with fill military 🎖️🪖 Honor's. Thank you for protecting Our Country ❤️🙏
Exactly as planned. Get the poor & working class kids to kill each other. That's the real reason for war. Don't be fooled. The "elite ruling class" collaborate regardless of borders. Same as Democrats & Republicans in the US. They work together while keeping the public divided & fighting each other. The wrong ppl have power in this world. But we give them that power. Wish ppl would wake up & stop falling for their shit
The draft was a terrible part of our history. I say this to as an Afghan war vet who voluntary joined to pay my $51k in student loans back. Key word: voluntary. Thank your Vietnam War veterans for surviving and sacrificing their physical and mental health. Now that Afghanistan collapsed, we understand our Vietnam vet family.
Ahghanistan collapsing was intevitable. I have no idea what we were fucking doing there in the first place. The British tried, the Russians tried. Why bother? It's tribal wars, nothing else.
Thanks American brother for doing your part. The drug war run by our cheque signing letter heads will never be won. Regardless of the soil we die on for it.
Served with the 173rd airborne in 68. One night pysops flew over the jungle in a chopper with a loud speaker playing Steppenwolf ( if a I remember correctly). It was awesome ,we hated them leaving

My grandfather served in Vietnam and survived with two purple hearts. Glad I got him for as long as I did!
Name, I want to look him up
Same
And so did my beloved Uncle Francisco in Saigon.............
i thank him and salute him for his service...he as all veterans have my utmost respect...
Grandpa served as well. Yours was an awesome dude!

Wouldn’t really say it’s against war, it’s more about how some people can avoid the draft because they are rich, while the lower classes had no choice.
Think about it trumpers
@True North so sorry to hear that
My personal favorite Vietnam song. I was there. Did all the stuff in this video and got shot for my trouble. 9th Infantry Division, 1968-69.
68 was the worst year

thank you for your service
thank you for fighting for our freedom
It's not until you get old, perhaps past the age of 40, do you truly appreciate how young soldiers really are who fight in wars.

In 1967 I was at Travis AFB visiting my Brother who was in the Air Force. As Troops were being deployed to Nam thru the front, they were unloading aluminum caskets from the back. All the Soldiers were staring. Very sobering.

@@fgarz7148 well actually vietnam didn't really kick America's ass, you see, since back then north vietnam was Communist, being supplied by red china and russia. Even when America did damage vietnam would just keep on getting more supplies, hence America just packed up and left. It doesn't mean that America had its ass kicked, America just left south vietnam to be taken over, but if you're referring to something different like the spike traps and tactics the Vietnamese soldiers used then yeah

A rich mans war, and a poor mans fight...
Exactly as planned. Get the poor & working class kids to kill each other. That's the real reason for war. Don't be fooled. The "elite ruling class" collaborate regardless of borders. Same as Democrats & Republicans in the US. They work together while keeping the public divided & fighting each other. The wrong ppl have power in this world. But we give them that power. Wish ppl would wake up & stop falling for their shit

The draft was a terrible part of our history. I say this to as an Afghan war vet who voluntary joined to pay my $51k in student loans back. Key word: voluntary. Thank your Vietnam War veterans for surviving and sacrificing their physical and mental health. Now that Afghanistan collapsed, we understand our Vietnam vet family.
Ahghanistan collapsing was intevitable. I have no idea what we were fucking doing there in the first place. The British tried, the Russians tried. Why bother? It's tribal wars, nothing else.
America needs the rare earth minerals that china will now get. Plus opium too.
Thanks American brother for doing your part. The drug war run by our cheque signing letter heads will never be won. Regardless of the soil we die on for it.
