My parents are both from the North of Vietnam. They were still kids in 1975 and my mom always told me how happy it was back then when she didnt have to hide herself under the basement to avoid the bombing after the reunification. My mum had an uncle who had left the big family to go South with his small family in 1954 promising to be back in 1956 but it turned out he only saw them again 19 years later and his dad had died in 1965. He refused to flee from Vietnam in 1975 because he wanted to see them again. Then he took all his big family to the South including my mum and gave them shelter, helped everyone find a job and found school for my mum. Unfortunately, he died tragically in a car accident while riding his other niece to find a job in 1979. His small family are all in Germany and America now but all of us back in Vietnam always appreciate his generosity and great support. If there was no reunification in 1975, I wouldnt have been born on earth. The war brought a lot of pain to most family. There are people suffering because of the incident happened in 1975 but there were families like ours getting a lot better after it. I hope all the pain heals in the end and there will be no war like this ever happens again.

My beloved grandfather was one of the communists coming to Saigon these days. As a teenager who joined the army, he left his family in the north of VN (Hai Phong) when my mother was just a very little kid, bumped into the war when no one could say when it ends and whether he lived or died.
Luckily, he could see me growing up as a teenager for almost 20 years. And so am I.
He passed away 6 years ago. Whenever I miss him, I think I will find this video and see how fabulous his youth is.

@@user-dr7ru8pm3d What's the similarity? Despite assholes who fleed to US, you see how happy people werr when the north troops entered the city?
you mean Communists, not Vietnamese
How many Americans know that HCM actually reached out for USA after WW1 to help him win independence for Vietnam, and he was not a communist back then? He repeated his attempts several time but was shunned back. How many Americans know that CASTRO tried the same thing with the US to win the same thing for his Cuban people, but was also Shunned? Same with the Soviets they also tried to be friends with the west after WW2, but were actually shunned back. The ruling elite/ bankers of the USA were always ready to deceive their own American people and hide the real story, for the benefit of the industrial complex. The only 2 presidents that actually tried to warn Americabs about it and tried to stop those proxy wars were Isenhower and JFK.
They pushed Vietnam toward communism, then send troops there to reverse it. They liberated Afghanistan from Taliban just to give it back to them later together with billions dollars worth of equipment. unnecessary bloodshed everywhere. It is just stupid.
So true
you are spreading ignorance... all of them were shunned because of reason: Corruption and Hypocrisy... I live in Russia, and a lot of people abroad don't understand how miserable and poor russia is... total corruption and unhuman government, people live here like cattle haha
Poor countries and third world bandit countries like China, Cuba, Russia, Vietnam etc don't understand Human Words, they don't work or speak like Germans - straight and effective.. Western Business only exploit those barbaric pseudo-nations LOL
HCM has been a communist since the final years of the 1910s, he was a member of the French Social Party, and voted in favor of the establishment of the French Communist Party. The Soviets after WW2 were aggressively trying to make the whole world communist, this is evident in the fact that puppet communist governments were systematically founded in Eastern Europe, in the countries that was unfortunate enough to be "liberated" by the USSR. They were not "shunned", they were wolves pretending to be harmless sheep, and they got what they deserve.
BULLSHIT!! The Communists were hell bent on taking over the world and these supposed attempt to reach out to the US were simply attempts to get Aiden support from us before they killed us and made us communist too. Lenin said that the capitalists would sell them the rope they would use to hang them with. Whenever we did try to be friendly with them it came back to haunt us in the end. Castro and Ho Chi Minh were Soviet loyalists who had no intention of long-term friendly relations with the us. Their intentions were to make their own areas and eventually the rest of the world communist and take all our rights away.

It was interesting how Ho Chi Minh worked with the OSS in WW II and invited American officers when he declared independence of Vietnam. He obviously needed US as an ally not Soviet or China. Later, in some interviews, he expressed how he was inspired by American revolution and he was willing to do the same in Vietnam. His work could go as planned if he got US on his side. Unfortunately, US government didn't give any attention to him which led to a huge mess afterwards.
that is true, if Americant govermen have accopany with HOCHIMINH the Viet nam war no happened
That is sad and might have turned out different had Roosevelt lived or not been pressured into dropping his long time VP (Wallace). Both men were determined to rid the world of colonialism. Truman was picked solely because he had few political enemies and once he had taken office after FDR's passing was persuaded to back France's recapture of control in Vietnam.
If Vietnam had become free with the blessing of the USA in 1945 just think what that country might have became by this time. They are on the rise these days and I wish them good fortune.
He was a very intelligent man. Definitely dedicated to his country. He was well educated. It all could have and should have been different .
Tôi đồng ý với bạn
Charles De Gaulle threatened the Roosevelt Administration that they would join the Soviet Bloc if the US picked Vietnam over France. The French came back to Vietnam in 1945 to retained their colony, the communist force was only around 500 to 1000 men at that time. Later, French got their butts kicked in 1954. All I have to say is history is intertwined and predestinated.
Hundreds of thousands young Americans and Vietnamese lost their lifes for one day of the fall of the southern regime, then the people who were in fear of the regime welcomed and embraced their brothers from the north.
You have seen that very valuable image, in contrast to the smear of the CIA and the puppet government of Saigon.
Americans and saigon regime warned: the communist army would "bathe in blood", "pull out the nails", Frank Sneep, a senior CIA official, even wrote "the communist army captured a female Saigon radio announcer, tied her up, cut her tongue ". That's why many people panicked, ran after the army and died at sea.Chaos occurred throughout South Vietnam, so the Saigon government collapsed without any major battles. Even the North was unpredictable.
That first scene is NOT the US Embassy, but an apartment building on 22 Gia Long Street, now 22 Lý Tự Trọng Street, where CIA and others where stationed.
Yes it is still there and so is the ladder..
Can you help me understand what you mean? Was that some sort of capstone event? Lol

@@mattstephens6137 The United States Embassy in Saigon was first established in June 1952, and moved into a new building in 1967 and eventually closed in 1975.

Vietnamese army in this time was a strong army in the world .Because they won 3 wars : 1 with French from 1858 to 1954 and 2 with English in South Viet nam from 1946 to 1954 . 3 with American ,Australian,South Korean and New Zealander from 1961 to March,1973 .They won the war in 30/4/1975 .In their history,they had many wars with Chinese for 1,800 years,many battles with Japanese,Qing (china), Mongolian,Thailand people,Laos,Cambodian,Dutch and Spanish .But they love PEACE very much .
The North Vietnamese military was indeed very strong, despite the tendency of outsiders-especially Westerners-to portray it as little more than a scrappy band of rice farmers. Many Vietnamese are justifiably proud of having fielded a professional, highly trained fighting force.
@@cardinalRG i mean it was a bunch a scrappy rice farmers, they were just TOUGH scrappy rice farmers!
@@dudelebowski8629 --The Vietnamese I know don’t care for the “rice farmers” characterization, nor the David-versus-Goliath metaphor that Westeners, especially, like to use. They take it as a simplistic stereotype, however well-intentioned it may be. (I assume that you didn't mean it this way.) It’s meaningful to mention that among Vietnamese fighters there were doctors, lawyers, accountants, clerks, entertainers, teachers, architects, engineers, and many others who’d never grown a grain of rice in their lives. Together they formed professional, highly trained and seasoned military forces, and labeling them as “rice farmers” isn’t necessarily the compliment it is intended to be.
If it was a strong army then it shouldn’t of needed to fall back entirely onto guerrilla warfare
@@cardinalRG they don't need a compliment, they only won because the American People had mercy on all the soldiers involved. If the American people wanted blood, we would blow up the whole country. We half assed all wars after WW2, we never gave full effort again. Why? Because we have too much mercy, war is too ugly, we don't have conscription, drafts are rarely used etc

The people are proud of their country, those who reside in the cities have jobs, food, homes and are provided with all of the things that they need to live and to support their families and those in the countryside also live decently on the land, usually laboring in traditional Vietnamese farming or fishing jobs and sonce that's how their country is, I do believe they don't mind rural living and actually prefer it to the life in the big cities.

Cảm ơn bạn ❤ đến từ Việt Nam
I am Vietnamese, and I read all comments from all over the world friends, and @devonoylear2415 is talking about us in the right way (at least to myself).
My father was in the army and fought in the border war of the Souther (of VN), his elder brother died in a hard 1968 battle against U.S army. My grandfathers had troubles in the 1955s with the new North government's farm revolution, but after all, they didn't mind and kept supporting Uncle Ho's government and sent all their sons to join the army.
My brother and I were born after the war, we were raised in our families's arms with love and I did not hear their hatred, my parents worked hard to feed us, and we kept forward to get a more convenient life.
My younger brother and in-law-brother joined the Communist party, but I am not but is not different from us under the leadership of one government.
vietnamese speak good english!
Oh yeah ? Ok
why can't we?
Probably the most deserved military victory in modern human history. I understand people's sympathy for those who feared the Communists, but under the South Vietnamese government they were the ones torturing, murdering and turning in their neighbours to the police. It's hypocritical to only value a Vietnamese life when they aren't a "communist." Ultimately these people chose America over an indigenous national liberation movement that had fought for Vietnam's sovereignty against the Japanese and the French before that. They must be among the most committed people in any army there's ever been. Simply put: they wanted it more because it was theirs.It's also an impressively orderly victory in which no pointless massacres or chaos occurred. You can tell that it was important to them not to tarnish something so many of their people had died for and the discipline was real.
Communists did the exact same thing
As outsider, I agree in general of your view. North Vietnam was leading to fight for Vietnam sovereignty and independency with utter determination regardless of cost and lives.

Vietnam literally is one of the toughest nations of all time, they fought several nonstop, sometimes overlapping wars from 1946 until 1991. No matter which side won, we now see that inevitably Vietnam would become a friend of the USA. And it's an honor to be your friend, I hope to visit one day.

You Vietnamese people don't want to be friends with the US. VN can be friendly, but not friend, to the US. US doesn't believe in friendship or loyalty. The Americans only work with partners for mutual benefits. The US is a good, fair partner, and won't screw VN like China. VN needs to be an equal partner, not a beggar, by bringing something good to the table, and the US will stick with VN. Look at Taiwan, Japan, and South Korea. Do not fall in love with the US, or any other countries, especially Russa, and definitely not China. VN needs to realize the days of sharing communist ideology are over.

To be precise, NVA and NLF (aka Vietcong) were far different from Taliban. They behaved like regular human beings, and all they have wanted were unification. Taliban, on the contrary, well...
Lmao, as if the NVA and NLF didn't commit their share of atrocities. Both treated their POWs brutally, conducted terror attacks, and sent hundreds of thousands of re-education camps where many were tortured and killed. You can say literally the same about the Taliban, all they wanted was reunification of their country since the invasion of the Soviets and its collapse into Civil War thereafter.

@@spookyperson7096 Lol, Mao was infamous for his ability to incite fighting between the classes, his entire period of rule could basically be characterized as him destroying his political rivals through successful persecutions of various people. First you had the "land reforms" which where the peasantry was goaded to attack and kill the landowners. Then you had persecutions of the KMT post 1949 which resulted in 700k+ people executions. There were also several anti campaigns that were aimed at businessmen, intellectuals, and members of the CCP who was claimed to be corrupt resulting in millions of deaths. The Cultural revolution was also an incitation of the students to attack their superiors, but also effectively annihilating many of his own political rivals within the party.
HCM never wanted war. He wanted peace for his country only. When no one listens and you’ve been betrayed then you take action. Some say worthless war and I’m sure HCM would agree because he tried to avoid it from the beginning. It was just a proxy war and the Vietnamese and surrounding countries suffered because of it.

The true horror was the years after this, when many South Vietnamese tried to escape to seek asylum and a way to the U.S (in Thailand, Singapore, Phillipines). They are called "boat people" and although there is no accurate statistic, it is estimated that around 2 millions of them perished on the sea surrounded South Vietnam, in the hand of pirates (killed, raped then throw out of their boat), to hunger and decease in the refugee camps if they managed to reach those forementioned countries.

Behind that man was a group of farmers who also abandoned their plows to run after them. My whole village suddenly felt like there was a festival. People poured into the streets cheering and waving flags. Students that day missed school because when they cheered, they threw their schoolbags into the lake LOL.

After decades of civil and military involvement in South Vietnam, the fall of Saigon and South Vietnam was a national humiliation for the United States. Quite right, too. The U.S. war in Vietnam was thoroughly unjustified.
The Communist war against the Vietnamese people was totally unjustified. The United States went there to assist the Vietnamese people in fighting the Communists. When the Communists took over nearly 3 million Vietnamese fled the country, the largest Exodus in Southeast Asian history.
@@tedmccarron there might be an alternate reality where Vietnamese could've became like South Korea and West Germany but we live in this reality and I'm glad that the Vietnamese people got what they wanted which was unification, I don't like communists nor do I like capitalists both are bad if taken too far.
The United States intervene in Vietnam's internal matters which was liberation from the French and created South Vietnam, they should've never been there in the first place. All the Vietnamese families who suffered from Agent Orange, members with PTSD, being cut down my machine gun fire and all the Americans who were shunned for fighting in a war that they never wanted to be in. The Vietnam War was a tragedy before it even started.

To be unified under slavery, mass murder and Terror is not a good thing at all and only an idiot would be in favor of it. Korea is at least half free and the other half is a totalitarian nightmare. I'm sure you would want to see them Unified under North Korean rule so that millions of innocent Koreans could die. That's not a happy outcome, that's a nightmare.

Only a piece of shit communist with no respect for human rights would applaud the Communist takeover of South vietnam. When the Communists took over they not only killed in the prison many innocent people but they took away the rights of all vietnamese. When they took over the Vietnamese people lost their freedom of speech, freedom of religion, Democratic political process, freedom of assembly and freedom of the press. All their rights were taken away and they delved into a Soviet style nightmare state. It was like the east side of the Berlin wall. Nearly 3 million of them fled the country which made it the largest accidents in Southeast Asian history. Only a total control free would be happy about something like that.

We backed the wrong horse in Nam. Too many Americans died for Dow Chemical, et al.
Initially, we were there because we needed Frances' help in Berlin. FDR advocated for independence for the French colonies. After he died, Truman needed France's help in Berlin to counter the Soviets, so when France sought to assert their dominance over their former colonies, Truman looked the other way. When Vietnam fought France for its independence, the U.S. was paying up to 70% of France's war cost.
After France's defeat, the UN divided Vietnam at the 17th Parallel, with the Communists getting the Northern half and the U.S.-backed Ngo Dinh Diem regime getting the southern half. There was a UN requirement to hold elections in two years. But the Catholic and anti-communist Diem stated that the South hadn't signed the Geneva Accords, so they weren't bound by them. Diem also felt it was impossible to hold free elections in the North, so the national election was never held. The U.S. also felt that Diem could not defeat Ho Chi Minh in a federal election, so they also supported the election cancellation. Diem was a corrupt Catholic autocrat in a country full of Buddhists, and he was only interested in maintaining power for himself and his family. He was overthrown in a coup on Nov 1st, 1963.
So, I guess you could say we backed the wrong horse...

Me too. Glad that's over.
I was 17 years old when I got to Vietnam-1966 through 1969 (My mom had to sign a waiver for me), I grew up fast and learned a lot, good and bad. (I am now 73 and still learning). I was stationed on the USS Providence and also stationed in Country at a place called "Monkey Mountain" close to DaNang,. I spent 3 tours of duty in and around Vietnam. 3 of my high school friends were killed in Vietnam, I was spared. I participated in the TET Offensive in Feb 1968, that was bad. Somewhere along the way I was exposed to Agent Orange (Nasty Stuff) I am now on disability for the effects of agent orange. When I was discharged and came home to the States we arrived in San Francisco, and there were a lot of protesters spitting on us and throwing rocks and eggs and called us baby killers. That was our welcome home. I tell you this to say to you, that whatever your position is or was on the Vietnam war, it was not the veteran who got us into the war, most of us went because we were patriots and loved our country. Blame the politicians, yes, but not the veteran. To all Vietnam Vets out there, you are not forgotten. As a previous combat Vet myself, I salute you my friend.
you are disgusting.
I guess now to avoid those attrocities being victims of war, people must consider what does this mean being patriots ? , if it can be easily manipulated by lies from our own politicians to get us into war after war, endless wars policy. If i may say, after Vietnam war, US copied the "Vietnam all over again" to Iraq, Afga, Yugoslovia, Serbia,...and many indirect wars, now the rhetoric of Ukraine war. Talking about US intervention to foreign countries, i remember history of US came to Philippines, senator of the US wrote at the time " it was true that the rulers of philippines oppressed and killed its people, but once we came in to liberate those poor people, the number of philippinos we killed in 2 months even more than what they have been killing during 13 years". At the end, i think being patriots meant to love, be loyal to your own country, to your people AND also to love and treat other people in other countries the same way as your people not your enemy, Once we take arms come all a long way to other countries to kill others, we have to ask ourselves what the outcome of killing others and who benefit it ?
No one told you to go fight... You should be mad at the government you have all the pride in the world only to be shitted on from the government
As a Vietnamese, I understand that very well, we don't blame the American soldier who was young and did not know much at that time. I born in Hanoi, my granddad is a Veteran too, he's fought the France, manage to save a whole squadron, and I think he was bad ass enough because later he got caught the France sent him on an island prison Côn Đảo (very far away). Luckily he survived and still live well, he is 94 years old right now😂
I was on a ship headed for cold weather training at Mt. Fuji when the gulf of Ton kin incident happened our ships took a left turn and we spent nearly 3 months floating off shore... Later on land for 13 months.
What younger people don't think about is that we were born (1946) in the shadow of the WWII veterans, all the big parades on many holidays and just the way the country felt about veterans in the 50s.
I remember thinking (also at 17) that if there was a war maybe we could become something to be proud of as well.
Our country regained its independence from the hands of Americans and their henchmen. We are the whole country, not just "North Vietnam", but include forces in the South.
The truth is that without the war on the Southwest border, the Northern border and the US embargo (until 1995), our country would have been much more developed.
We have continued the tradition of driving out the foreigners.
We saved the Cambodian people from genocide from Ponpot. But the world still owes Vietnam an apology and an acknowledgment of the historical values we bring to world peace.
Because we have gained independence since 1945, repelled the French colonialists in 1954. Because of that, colonial countries around the world have carried out revolutions to gain independence.
Be careful, events in the Taliban and Vietnam may be similar in some ways. But the nature and origin of the two forces are completely different.
This is the internet age, be careful when comparing and judging.
