Wow what detail..his whole experience was in such detail..no wonder he has "issues" PTSD. GOD HELP HIM& other like him. His trip home was amazing surprise to mom&dad. Thnks for not interrupting him with his dialogue Larry
Glad you enjoyed it. I have done so many interviews over the years I tend to forget how powerful and profound these interviews are and were when I recorded them years ago. Help me to share Joe's story. God bless you!!
Thank you so much for your service. Larry, this was an amazing interview it would be a good one for a part two. I'm very curious about how and when he got help and what he had to go through and how long it took to get better.
Thank you so much Papa. I'm glad you watched this story. I just pulled it out of my archives yesterday. It really is powerful and many people need to hear the message.
Welcome Home Airman, and thank you for sharing your history. I especially enoyed hearing about your reunion with your mom and dad, but as Larry said, yours is an interesting story. God bless, and thank you for making this country a better place to live.
I was in what was then the 12th Air Police squadron from February 1966 to February 1967. Air Police became Security Police later on. Your story stirs up a lot of memories for me Joe. Welcome home Bro!
I love what you're doing, and God bless you for it, but I wish you'd given this soul a few more minutes to tell his story. It seem cathartic to him and I was enthralled! Nothing negative here just wish he could have continued. I pray he got his life together! God bless and I'm praying for him.
This is a good one. Joe had a lot to say and I feel he could have talked for at least another hour. I suspect that you'll produce a Part 2 of this interview, since Joe didn't sign off with a salute to the camera. I'll be looking for it.
Larry go get some more out of this man. I remember the black radio that put up the towers a few months ago it was amazing god bless u larry I keep u in my prayers all the time keep on trucking. So cool to see people not even a ,100 miles from me
Project 100000 was a sad episode of the Vietnam war. I served with several men who might have been drafted under this program. My Brother in Law should havre never been drafted. He is 100% section 8 disabled but oddly was awarded a Bronze Star. He would have been a good Company Commander during peace time.
I have two brothers who served in this nations Air Force. I know two Vietnam Veterans who should be given this opportuniy to have a video record of there experiences. I'm US Army.
Thanks for the video. Just a little bit confused too offensive was January 68. He was there 69. I’m guessing he’s referring to the second least less effective Tet Offensive only thing I can figure out thank you
@@VoicesofHistory If you knew he was struggling why did you post this? Thank you. Just some things you’re doing I don’t understand. I’m not trying to mean mean just trying to understand what your thought process is. And again thank you
@@paulprigge1209 Allow me to respond. Mr. O'Brien sought Larry out so that he might share his story with others. I, for one of many, am glad he did. Who are you to look down from the high perch you've placed yourself upon and suggest this combat vet be muzzled because you have judged him unfit to excercise the right he fought for, as all Combat Vets ultimately fight for?
@@paulprigge1209. His sharing his story, and the truth of his condition, may very well help someone else ( suffering the same post SEA service challenges) by hearing it. They might be compelled to seek out help, or perhaps find some common ground with him. It could be of great benefit to someone now, and it may have helped him by sharing this.

There are so many. Thanks again for bringing their struggles to light before it gets too dark to care.
Thank you Michael and Darlene. It is a joy to work with you. I hope you liked Joe's story.
In 1969, the rank of Senior Airman did not exist. E-4 at the time was a Sergeant. Commonly referred to as a Buck Sergeant in the USAF.
Another great interview Larry, welcome home Sr Airman Joe O'Brien 🇺🇸 thank you for your service.

Welcome Home Airman, and thank you for sharing your history. I especially enoyed hearing about your reunion with your mom and dad, but as Larry said, yours is an interesting story. God bless, and thank you for making this country a better place to live.
Thanks Chet. I was recently reminded of Joe's story through one of my other Veterans. I'm glad I was able to record it.
I was in what was then the 12th Air Police squadron from February 1966 to February 1967. Air Police became Security Police later on. Your story stirs up a lot of memories for me Joe. Welcome home Bro!
Glad you found this story. I am sure you have one to tell as well. God bless you!!
God Bless you Joe for your service and thank you again Larry for sharing these stories.
Very welcome. A labor of love. It has been an honor these past 21 years.
None has touched me yet,Like Ed Masterson, that one really got my heart strings
Yes, a very gripping story. I plan to interview Ed again in January. Almost 20 years after his first interview.
Welcome home Joe. Thank you for your sacrifices and service. 🇺🇲
Thank you kindly for commenting on Joe's story.
I love what you're doing, and God bless you for it, but I wish you'd given this soul a few more minutes to tell his story. It seem cathartic to him and I was enthralled!
Nothing negative here just wish he could have continued. I pray he got his life together! God bless and I'm praying for him.
❤
I love this interview but it was cut short ....he had plenty of more amazing details to go but Thank you
Walk a mile in my shoes...
Love me an old soldier.
This is a good one. Joe had a lot to say and I feel he could have talked for at least another hour. I suspect that you'll produce a Part 2 of this interview, since Joe didn't sign off with a salute to the camera. I'll be looking for it.
Larry go get some more out of this man. I remember the black radio that put up the towers a few months ago it was amazing god bless u larry I keep u in my prayers all the time keep on trucking. So cool to see people not even a ,100 miles from me
Keep those prayers coming brother. I need them more than ever.
Anyone remember Project 100,000?

If you talk to any vet there were multiple Tet offenses, several years after I believe 68, albeit on a much smaller scale.
Please realize his mental state when he talked with me. I am surprised some would attack his story. Very sad and troubling.
@@VoicesofHistory If you knew he was struggling why did you post this? Thank you. Just some things you’re doing I don’t understand.

Im actually irritated you cut this guy off from his combat details. Why didn’t you let him speak?
