Us hmong help the americans fought in this war and still we are getting killed even today. Go watch HUNTED LIKE ANIMALS in youtube. You'll see how us hmong people are killed and beg america to hlep us. America should've never ditch the hmong during the vietnam war. But at least some... not a lot... but some know us hmong people.

[vonkiser]

That is so fucked up what happened to you guys after we(the Americans) left......I am sorry and apologize for that....it is a discrace......the administration in this country at that time should be prosecuted and jailed for ALL the bullshit that was wrong in that war.

@50poiuyt VC CRIMINAL WAR 50POIUYT: Communist criminal, defends the communist military dictatorship of the Vietnam. Either man in the life and goes to defend the human rights and the democracy in the Vietnam.

[50poiuyt]

what do you call people,who were defeated by "stupid men"?the Idiots?Imbeciles?They win,you lost.This was the most shameful lost of Yanks in their history .Rather shut up and do not prate absurdity like mad guy

[KoesKoes99]

Hey yo, You call losing men win? Both sides lost manny good soldiers so please shut the fuck up nobody won

[musicdick85]

This brings back memories. 1969, I was there. Life certainly was different back in the late 60's and early 70's than it is now. Way different.

[BuckHunter094]

thats 8mm film.. you shouldnt have added sound to it, its just takes away from the total effect of the footage..

[BollocksUtwat]

then just mute it.

add some damn music

[tannedking187]

better without music..thanks for adding

[toghax09]

why add music? they did not have it during vietnam while fighting.

[B0BBARKER444]

This video sucks ASS!!!! the audio is edited in and its the menu vid from EoD. Go fuck off buddy

[Stealth3]

@B0BBARKER444

Video is not from EoD, and the original had no sound so of course the audio is added in. The only thing from EoD are pictures at the end, menu background and some music. I'm not trying to hide that, gave EoD team credit.

I was talking about the text overlay and description. But you're right, I shouldn't be such a prick about it. I retract my comment.

[jigmesam]

My suggestion would be, if you're going to post something like this, at least make sure the grammar and spelling is correct.

[Stealth3]

If you haven't notice, I left the interview as was posted to me from the man himself. I did not edit it at all on purpose. You don't interview somebody and then edit it because sentences do not fit right, etc.

[sethhegy]

I still wish more people would spell cavalry correctly. Nice vid otherwise.

[woothoofoock]

dude seriously, go eat something

[Armyman1966]

Problem is really, that the last few generations of Americans have had it so fucking good their idea of hardship is when the power to their X Box is interrupted. Soldiers in Vietnam were DRAFTED for the most part and if you can manage to frame the war in the context of that period, when communism was spreading around the world, maybe you idiots would have a better understanding. But its more fun to run down your own countrymen huh?

[Stealth3]

Communism wasn't so bad as the West made it look. I know plenty of countries that did much better during communism than they are doing now.

Capitalism brings corruption and that is much worst than authority under communism.

Capitalism -> Corruption to high hell, bureocracy and bs politics as usual.

They both have their ups and downs to be honest.

[Mordasz]

Well, the real problem with communism, is that it's a bit utopian actually. You simply can't make a country, where everybody has a well payed job and a good life. Also the thing in Asia (vietnam, korea, china) wasn't communism. If they were trully communists, they would rather try to help the working class, instead of killing everyone who's not with them.

[ironhorzmn]

You have no idea what you're talking about. Both Stalin and Mao, just to name two of the worst Communist dictators, murdered over 100 million of their own people through famine, concentration camps and executions trying to force their policies down their throats.

And isn't North Korea doing REALLY well under Kim Jong Il? The poor slobs over there are practicing cannibalism while Kim bankrupts his country building nukes and 'hotels to nowhere' so poorly constructed they're unsafe to occupy.

[taywil64]

Each country must be allowed to select it sown political system reagrdless of whether we identify with it or not. When we dont identify with it and term it evil and a so-called threat to our system was becomes inevitable, alas.

[hlwanmoe1981]

Kim is not alone, now you can see Burma leader, Senior General Than Shwe, he's also as sick as Kim, Burma is one of the dictator countries in this world. But a few people know about it. That sick bastard is more worse.

[whiff1962]

@Stealth3 Is Vietnam and its opening up of international markets then corrupted? The same appeal to gut emotion, at the expense of reason. Communism has not worked, and history has borne out this assertion, time and again!

[wildhippy]

"Communism" was just whoever we happened to hate at the moment. The NLF was just a national liberation movement. It was the thereat of a good example that we were afraid of. There were no Russians or Chinease around. This was Vietnam wanting their freedom and acting in their own self-interest. They never did anything ever against the USA. The government of the south was our puppet - open admitted to in the Pentagon papers.

[ironhorzmn]

Get your noses out of your leftwing professors' asses long enough to read a little real history.

The people of the USSR and PRC did NOT 'select' their leaders. Stalin followed Lenin who had already overthrown the ruling monarchy. Mao seized power through civil war.

Stalin murdered well over 50 million of his own people through starvation and gulags.

Mao murdered a total of 80 million Chinese.

Communism always involves murders and gulags. Now Obama wants to see it here.

Be afraid.

[Nobuto15]

yeah, Obama will bring death to America! lets see what Congress says!

[jigmesam]

Obama is a commie? hehe wha?

[69lmao69]

to be honist i dont think he does

[porn1978]

How in the hell could you NOT know you're going to a war zone,i mean what the fuck you think,you're going on a fucking field trip!

[ironhorzmn]

You armchair soldiers make me sick. I know that innocents went through hell in Nam, but the one thing you morally superior bleeding hearts always seem to have in common is that all your condemnation is reserved for US troops. Never do we hear a word of criticism from your type for the enemy who wear civilian clothing, hide among civilians and occupy civilian villages, turning them into military targets so you can take pictures and videos of the aftermath and call US troops 'war criminals'.

[BruteCommando]

I couldn't agree more with you man, i would be pissed as fuck fighting a invisible enemy that prefers to hide in villages and put their own people in danger for bombing and assault's so the press can call the soldiers baby killers and murderers and so on bunch of ignorant fucks.

[wildhippy]

because we are responsible for OUR crimes, not their crimes. It's easy to denounce the enemy - much harder to look in the mirror and be honest. Besides - they wouldn't have had to do that if we didn't invade South Vietnam.Doug Pike: War, Peace, and the Viet Cong (MIT, 1969). He estimates that in 1963 perhaps half the population of South Vietnam at least tacitly supported the NLF. The same estimate was given by the US Mission in 1962. Elsewhere, he has explained that in late 1964 it was impossi

[az549247]

My uncle is a vet and he said he thought he was invinsible until he went to vietnam and saw half of his friends die

[stepennwolf]

stormmont shut the hell up, those were our boys over there and they fought hard as they could and they went through hell and how dare u disrespect falled soldiers? you are a piece of shit

[growingup2204]

wait ? your boys created a hell in a beautiful tropical country and couldn't go through it ? You came to Vietnam, with ultimate weapons, bombing all over the north, killing a lot of enemies by bombing and shooting many civilians then returned as losers and yet you deserve respect ? Yes, we should repect those vets who dare to face the fact that they lost in a wrong war but the losers who returned behaving and saying things like heros doesn't deserve shit.

[stepennwolf]

listen growingup, war is hell, if u think everyone follows the rules ur dead wrong, and those so called "civilians" were storing weapons and food for the dinks of the north. i dont care what u say any soldier that has gone through hell and back deserves the utmost respect and how dare you say they dont. Ur Vietnamese, ur damn county couldnt defend itself so we tried to help out. so u pretty much just bit the hand that fed you

[dogtagz01]

keepem comin and let it fly these people like growingup are a bunch of shit

your pal and a us army vet dogtagz01

[CommanderBomblastic]

I agree growingup good comment. We should not respect the losers who came back pretending to be heros when in fact they created mayhem, or their supporters spewing shit on websites. We should respect those who came back and say that it was a mistake, and talk about it in that way. I hate these retards who think it is their holy right to prance around the world killing people.

[nicmhj]

a soldier follows his country and is loyal to his country till death no matter what. All Soldiers must be respected. They do their job which is to be loyal. Anyone willing to give their life to their nation should be respected no matter how right or wrong the decisions of that countrys leaders are. If you have a problem about the war's politics or who started it look at the governments not the soldiers. The soldiers are never to blame.

[elektrikheat]

I am Vietnamese myself, and I respect both sides of the situation. Either way, a soldier deserves respect for helping out his or her country (in this case mainly male in Vietnam.) Stop arguing, it's the past. Get over it.

[BruteCommando]

Yeah it's time to put it in the past and learn from things like this and try to never let it happen again. Japan and the U.S are allies shit 60 years ago they were the worse enemy on the face of the earth, i'm against war not in the sense that i hate soldiers etc but i hate war because it really should be the last resort you are dealing with people's lives if you're gonna do it let it be for a very important cause that might affect the world or your country if you don't fight.

[nukeusa911x2]

@growingup2204 thumbs down.

[Charownedi]

i got this war pretty well put in my video.. try it.. it took a while to put together.

[stormmont]

emericans got there arses kicked by a buch ov noodle monchers

[Espeelover]

c'mon on guys I know a lot of Veitnam Vets and it wasn't the solderiers who fuaght and died, none of it was started by the soldiers.

So comon don't say any thing bad about those vets, one of my veteran friend lost a lot of his friends in that war. half the men fighting were drafted.

[macksun]

bad footage.. dont get good til like 2:00.. before that its just random bomb droping and missle firing.. and the quotes are not credited to the person who saying them.

[Stealth3]

Quotes are credited at the end, its just one person saying them. No point in crediting every quote if its the same person.

[mooseyiscool]

the british are talking about the us picking on third world countries look what you did to about every country hmm lets see you tryed to colonize africa and now you use them for diamondsand look what problem they have now with them killing each other that is all the brits fault, you colonized india for you r own personal gain your just as bad as everyone else so dont act like america is evil so are you

[hlwanmoe1981]

I like shooting star Fighter.

[Acid4Blood]

won every major conflict? wtf is wrong with you?!

didnt you yanks run like pussies when saigon was going to be overun by the vietcong? the left the country before the war was over,ignorant mongo,what about the war againts spain in 1878? got their asses kicked once again....bunch of preaks always picking on 3rd world countries.

[redneckbuddhist]

and where were the austrailians? no doubt somewhere in the south away from the VC and NVA

[overNout5]

yea except it wasnt even their war. so there allowed to leave whenever they want and what the fuck are you talking about picking on 3rd world countries? maybe your country will turn communist some day and youll be begging for our help.. then we'll see

[growingup2204]

yea Vnamese begged for ur help so u came like lofty God with no intention than helping, rite? Actually, those soldiers wished they had never come but they couldn't until ur government made them fuck everything up and let them got kick ares. There's only 3 communist countries in the world now including that Vietnam you helped to fight communist, and the people there are so begging for ur help..go there to help, just don't suck those countries' blood out like ur doing in Iraq or wherever u've been

[dogtagz01]

get your head out of your ass and wise up i am a vet that help fight for the freedom you have and you dare talk shit but you'ver never done anything except bitch just like all the other asses that don't see what the vets have seen and damn sure haven't done what we have done so shut your frickin piehole if you have never been in war and heard babies scream and smell death and watch your buddies get killed

your a lazyass

[shakethese317]

inka peru we have won every major conflict weve ever been in we prolly send food to your third world starvin ass

[dougi]

charlie kill charlie

[samimzantout]

same thing is happening in IRAQ. We need to watch out. The only difference is that the rate at which its happening in Iraq is quest slower than in Vietnam, thats why we cant notice much of what is going on , moreover the media is covering up and does not put us in the sence that we are at war.

[InkaPeru]

yeah dude the vietcong kicked your ass in vietnam!

[Navyseal234]

The VC sucked eggs in Vietnam.

[wlh1us]

alot of this stuff that was given to the media i saw on the 6 o'clock news every night after school growing up, im older now but have not managed to grow up yet

[wlh1us]

that was the real awe and shock, i went in the army in 77 at the age of 18, missed viet nam by three years, i was lucky, when i got to germany in oct of 78 as a private, there were many older soldiers that had been not so lucky,,, they had an air to them that let you know some hell was lived thru

[wolfbait74]

Nice job on this War anytime anywhere is terrible. But when I think of Vietman and the stories I've read and the pictures I've seen. That place just sounds like Hell for both sides. Would hate to be an American fighting in a land you dont know or care about. For the VC having to go against a country that you know will kill millions. Just couldn't imagine being in that conflict.

[wolfbait74]

Anytime in war you are on the defence the attacker will lose soldiers in about a 3 to 1 ratio. The only problem with defence is you can't win a war with that. And North Vietnam was fighting for its country. We were there fighting for Vietnams freedom. Which seems like the same thing to me. Just bad politics and 1960s American fear of Communism spreading over the world.

[nukeade]

I dont appreciate how you use Eve of Destruction, a battlefield modification as pictures. Atleast say they are a referance.

Read the description: "Some pictures and sounds taken from OFP and EOD mod."

Plus this vid is cut from the original which is 10 m in which I gave full credits.

[Jarhead6322]

I love when people say that. "You can't win, they're willing to die." Well no shit, huh? You don't fight a war if you're not willing to die. Or did you think that you went to war to eat lolipops and play go fish?

[PedrofromHell]

You are very wrong. The ones that are not willing to die make it back home. Not everyone in every conflict is willing to die. If that were the case then there wound't be any wars, everyone wouldn't mind getting blown up. You make no sense.

[acoyrazorback]

Aussie & New Zealand forces 50000 served 1962-72 mostly Phuc Tuy provence just over 500 killed, 2 to 3000 wounded. Why forge commitment from US to help Australia if invaded by Indonesea Pop 200 mil Aust 15 mil pop.

[acoyrazorback]

Aussies 50,000 served 500 dead 2400 wounded Phuc Tuy provence 1965 1972.Advisers 1962- 72.Why were we there to build stronger ties with US in case of in vasion of Australia; population 15 mil by Indonesea population 200 mil.

[shawn00]

Nice use of OFP stuff.

[vinnymatrix]

Vietnam war is horrible.40 million galons of Orange agent + 3 times world war 2 explosive to bomb in North Vietnam . 12000 hellicopter,6 thousands airlane, 2.8 million troops from 7 country..can not stop 1.2 million troop from North Vietnam to attack for Unify vietnam in One...fucking deadly war.

[tf1977sled]

my father served and beleved he was there for good reason we did not loose we exited because of political pressure we could have won simpl by nuken the whole third world country

[BlackMage07]

God damn you are stupid. Please shut up.

[diggadigg]

YAA just NUKE them thats a bright idea!!..say how many years of college have you completed? or better yet have you ever left this country??..so many ignorant people that live in the United States..it almost makes me ashamed to live here..THINK BEFORE YOU TALK

[finchiestiffler79]

ok nuke the mountains. but it aint gonna stop the war. US dropped bombs in vietnam 3 times more than all the bombs used in WW2. just waste of resources, bombing forests, then later change to aerial spray of herbicide to kill forest tops.

[relic141]

Well nuking them wouldnt have worked, thats always a bad fall back on you hear people use too much.

However we COULD have taken the north if we would have held ground after wining it, and used the air campaign against the north the way we use air power now.

We just didnt go do it to win!

Then you cant make the arvn's want to win as much as the NVA.Glad we are actually getting on good terms with Vietnam nowadays.

Waste of life but some of the best fighters we ever had there.

[vinnymatrix]

Dead and wounded in vietnam war:US=58K 348K wounded,SouthVietnamese=248K,1­89K wounded,South Korean=30K 40K wounded,Thai=7k 12k wounded,Phillipin=9k 4k wounded,Newzland=2k...unknow,A­ustralia=1k 2k wounded,Canada=1k unknow.:NVA=624K 300K wounded + 1.1 million civilian dead by US and their alliance bomb.

[BKRInc]

but did stop communism from engulfing vietnam,cambodia and laos..and wasn't that the whole reason you were there in the first place

[kdevere]

in terms of casulties inflicted yes

[dat8r1]

you talk so well big mouse ! i would like to see you fighting ! why don't you come back Vietnam again? just shut up and respect all usa or NVA soldiers killed in this war!

[kdevere]

we lost 50000 us troops nva and vietcong losses were 2 million troops i consider that a win

[Stealth3]

According to that, the Germans won WW2, and WW1.

Nice logic you got there eh?

[dat8r1]

pfft! win !!! why don't you figthing in Irak ou afghanistan ? you are the best warior! go on!!!

[Rumpupumppu]

Usa got fucked up hard in this war..

[Braaap126]

Can we truly set ourselves apart from the animals and even insects and refer to the human race as superior when the only way to resolve our differances is by killing each other?

[lilswtangel92]

this is actually very gud. impressive. thx for sharing

[XEdelweissX]

Honestly? Overall, it was cheesy. It looked like someone was trying to showcase their ability to create animated text, and make as many different transitions as possible. The video is compelling on it's own. The voice over script was from Wikipedia? Seriously, check into Final Cut Studio 2.0.

[Stealth3]

I had to do a history project about the era for AP history back in sophomore year in high school. So I did an interview and a video about the Vietnam, which is this one here.  I found out I had it on CD, so I decided to edit only the Vietnam part out and put it on youtube.

[Stealth3]

It was my first attempt at editing videos, so its not that professional and it has some mistakes. Its not meant to be flawless. Also, I used windows movie maker, which is as basic as it gets : )

I'm not sure where I got the voice over script from, it was about 4 years ago.

Cheers

[jasonkolo]

Excellent video. Keep up the good work.
