  • people SHUT THE FUCK UP !!! its so annoying to have to see all these stupid comments about how the u.s is this and so and so did this so there fore they are that....its sooooo stupid quit wasting your time..this is like wolrd war 5 million on youtube just because of these stupid arguments ...SO SHUT UP ! and get your heads out of your asses

  • why the fuck would you dislike a video like this.. but seriously think about it.. why the fuck

  • i feel sorry for the families of the men that died in the 7th air calvary

  • lay me down. On the cold cold ground. Lay meee down. Where many have gonee....

  • The US is responisble for many many thousand deaths of innocent people all around the world. So Shut the fuck up, The world is fucked up, and so is the us and its government..stop being so fuckin naiv, in the end, its all about money...

  • My daddy never came home from Iraq:,(

  • @jankurajber Hey you fucking idiot, you ask what they are doing in IRAQ and Afghanistan? Almost nothing now, but they FOUGHT TALIBANS not Fucking CIVILIANS, Talibans are tyrant like organizations with terrorist minds. So how about you shut the fuck up and show some respect about the US Army and U.S.A in all.

  • @itzalexplox I respect all soldiers and i disgust usa and US governemnt. Ur governemnt sends soldiers to kill innocents. ur government is nothing else but greedy psychos who need to die. Soldiers...i respect every one of em being one myself. Only ppl in usa i respect are soldiers. They are just following the orders. The rest of u are pretty much scumbags and thats the truth. Trust ur governemnt and wish death upon the innocent claiming their the bad ones..yeah, theres pride in there

  • @MrMetsakurat You're pathetic, ok fine we will pull out all troops and will never pay to other country's debts to help them out, we will just become a rich goverment that cares for its self only. Then when you have a dictator in your country and you have to suck his dick for the rest of your life, USA won't be there. Ok bud?

  • @itzalexplox hahaha. Do you really think the government of the us cares for anybody else than their self? Actually its not the Government who runs the us, its the circle of power, meaning the people who has money, they are not many, but they are extremely powerfull and can take out anywho they want...and they only care about their self.

  • @itzalexplox haha yeah ur a good american ain't ya. just how the us government wants all americans to be. you're just one of those sad little people who just listen and believe everything that the government says to them, without even a thought. do your own research, hey, look at the leaked footage from afghanistan, civilians were carrying a wounded child into a truck and drove away from the battle and the us army went and bombed it knowing full well what was going on.

  • @MaGiiCxMuShRooMz That's bullshit, there is no way the US army would just bomb the truck with knowing fully it was EXACT same truck with the wounded child. What about the talibans? Did you exactly see THE U.S.A Army bomb the truck? Get the fuck out of America and next time you need its help you ain't getting shit bitch.

  • @itzalexplox haha yer ok i'll decribe what happened, the soldiers in the bombing plane were requesting permission to fire on the truck, the soldier in charge spotted a wounded child being taken towards the truck by civilians, so he held his fire, but as the truck drove away the order was given and they shot the truck. and yes i did see it with my own eyes. and it's funny because i live in australia, not ur shit stained country full of idiots, not enough in it know whats going on..

  • @MaGiiCxMuShRooMz You know, actually I shouldn't give a shit..do you know what they did to us on 9/11? Guess how many people died? Do you think that one wounded child makes up for all the people that died in the both towers? People in countries like Afghanistan were getting killed by Talibans every DAY, Do you think 1 child makes up for that? Just go back to where you came from and live on that little island you call Australia, you still have black and white t.vs?

  • @itzalexplox they knew that they were innocent, but they were so brainwashed that they blew em up anyway. THESE are the soldiers that defend your country, THESE are the people you call your heroes. /watch?v=B6hp8HMstkE. watch this and i hope to god you wake the fuck up from your long sleep. and lmao i'm not even going to go into 9/11 because you can't even comprehend the most simplest things I tell you so i'm not going into a complicated subject with u like that

  • @itzalexplox and if you want me to attempt to open your eyes to the truth of 9/11 (which will probably be impossible because you are completely blind to everything going on around you) but watch this video /watch?v=1dbJpDmKw3I. hopefully this will show you how it's so obvious that this had NOTHING to do with the terrorists and bin laden.

  • @MaGiiCxMuShRooMz You're not intelligent, just shut the fuck up..are you going to tell me that when they killed Saddam Hussein on camera it was a cruel thing? You can't even spell "you" correctly. I'm not going to go check out that link but let me guess, it's a video about Zeitgeist? The Towers went down because of the planes not because of some *C4* on each floor. The plane's explosions triggered a force that pushed down on the building which caused it to go down like that. Learn Physics Bitch.

  • @itzalexplox lmfao, yeah ok i'll spell every single word I say exactly without shortening it if that makes you feel content. and how does a plane impacting a structure from the side cause a building to crumble straight down to the ground at free- fall speed? how is that a representation of correct physics? That makes no sence, your sheer stupidity is actually making me laugh. And it is impossible for a building so well made to crumble at free fall speed without the weight of the

  • @itzalexplox rest of the tower above the epicentre of the collapse pushing it down (which fell to the side later on and the building crumbles down all on it's own apparently?) or fire hot enough to melt steel, jet fuel from a plane doesn't burn at a temperature hot enough to melt steel, so how are you going to physically explain how the towers fell without explosives like c4? sir you are just blind. the concept of it is just too horrible to except so you'd just deny it to the end..

  • @itzalexplox The invasion of iraq, afghanistan and so on is a bloody mistake. The conditions are worse than ever, and taliban are on the offensiv. You cant force democracy on a people, it has to come naturally....And as we all know, the invasion of these countries didnt happen because of humanitarian reasons, the invasion happend because of oil resources and so on...

  • I respect every soldier that goes and fight. It doesn't matter from what Nation. They have the guts to go there and fight, not like others that just sit behind a desk and doesn't give a fuck if a thousand died. Every time i hear someone is a soldier or was a soldier i will salute them.

  • i love it..very epic and effective...love u make this.!!! hope can do the best nex time <3

  • its always some degree of pleasure to see american millitary getting what it deserves even though its just a film

  • SEMPER FI

  • war is not over yet

    we still war against ourselves

  • The only winners in war are the not just the arm chair generals. But also the politicians and the secret governance that plans geopolitics (for centuries). These cartels, financiers, oligarchs, secret society members are largely at fault for robbing humanity, killing our youth.

    They virtually are the worshippers of Satan, they are occultic and they want to depopulate humanity. Wake up to the truth and it shall set you free.

  • 1:43 :(

  • nog 2 dagen

    dan is t sinterklaas

    jeeej

  • respect to the yanks that fought here but its a shame they dont commemorate other battles like battle of long tan when 108 australians defeated 2500 vietcong. that is forgotten while an american battle that america lost is remembered. why is this?

  • If we do not end war war will end us

  • @DESERTRANGER7 unfortunately war is unavoidable. there is this famous saying that goes "if you want peace, prepare for war". as long as humans exist, there will be war because there will always be evil. i dont want to sound like a warmonger. i hate war. but it cannot be avoided.

  • @fatty1443 as long as there are 2 people on this planet someone is gonna want someone dead

  • GOD BLESS EVERY COUNTRY IN THE WORLD EXCEPT FOR THE EVIL AND CORRUPTED USA WHO DESTROYED THE WORLD AND HID THE TRUTH OF EVERYTHING FROM EVERYONE!!!

  • @SyriacBoy10 dude that the usa you looking at

  • @Shamaan321 you need to get your facts straight asshole. However no matter if we went into a stupid ass war or a really good one and this is too everyone. You never fuck with ground troops they aren't the ones making the damn war why blame them? They are just trying to protect their family friends and country.... You all are rediculous it's a tribute why bother to argue over a video that's paying its respects to 300+ cavalryman.

  • @arocklife1 your right however I can tell you from a strategic viewpoint total domination. But winning the hearts and minds was a miserable defeat we did withdraw from too many riots and political emergency in our country.... However no matter if we went into a stupid ass war or a really good one and this is too everyone. You never fuck with ground troops they aren't the ones making the damn war why blame them? They are just trying to protect their family friends and country.... You all are red

  • God Bless the 7th U.S. Cavalry. Garry Owen boys.

  • @jankurajber talks the guy who his country made mass murder and try to died a country of his independece. yes kosovo so whos now the imperialist

  • your like bar looks like there camo witha blood bullethole in it

  • when i hear this i think of soap from MW3, R.I.P soap

  • what sound tracks in the background?

  • When I saw this I cried and I still am.This story aint like other movies because this actually shows what war is and its a terrible thing and for a strange reason I am even more encouraged to enlist and defend my country like all the soldiers that are doing right now and the ones in the past.

    I have friends and uncles who are enlisted and fought the war in Vietnam and its difficult for them to explain everything.War can never be explained you have to experience it.Respect to all the soldiers

  • im standing at attention while i listen to this song.

    chin up, chest out, shoulders back, stomach in.

    and keeping my heels together, toes apart.

    respect to our soldiers from every nation.

  • @MrPiggy565

    Really :S

    Im sorry for your lost :(

  • Question: How many of you who commented here actually read the book?

  • The americans lost the war in Veitnam.They were beat up pretty hard

  • @Shamaan321 WRONGWRONGWRONGWRONGWRONG. The United States of America did not lose the war in Vietnam. We withdrew of the country because of political reasons. And as soon as we did, the damn communists ran rampant and killed over 8 million, thats +8,000,000 (for those of you who probably cant count like my friend here) innocent civilians. If it wasn't for politicians, the numbers of soldiers lost would've been minimized. We did NOT lose........ ooh-rah.

  • @arocklife1 Just shut up.

    You sent soldiers over there to capture Veitnam but you lost.

    You angered your enemy so much that they began to eat the flesh of american soldiers and they enjoyed it.

    YUMMY!

  • @Shamaan321 Troll.

  • Ha Ha Ha you r just a coward.

    You might call me troll but you americans are beasts who always start wars.

    Because of you many people are forced into tyrany against you.

    You monsters are the cause of deaths of many people,specially muslims

  • @Shamaan321 I am Norwegian. ;)

  • @TheGnolla Good for you.

    If you were an american i would rip your throat.

    Maybe.

  • @Shamaan321 I'm American and damn proud of it....wanna try to rip my throat out? Keyboard pussy.

  • @TheGnolla Good for you.

    If you were an american i would had have been forced to rip you're throat.

    Maybe.

  • @Shamaan321 You would have to rip I am throat? *confused* Or did you mean YOUR!?  ;)

  • @TheGnolla You;re a hag.

    I think the Norwegians also deserve a good spanking on their pittyful butts.

  • @Shamaan321 I'm shaking in my boots here. :P

  • @Shamaan321 You are really uneducated. The casualty rate was one dead American every 10 dead VietCong. What would happen if we didn't withdraw because of the hippies?

  • @arocklife1 You lost the Vietnam war because you never understood the country or its people. You are about to lose in Afghanistan for the same reason. You have learned nothing.

  • @arocklife1

    that is the definition of a loss... : /

  • IF this video is based on war in Veitnam,The americans got beat up pretty hard.

  • Well what we need on this world, is less war more peace, why fight back with guns when we can use our best weapon, our voice :)

  • 25 terrorists like killing Americans

  • @lastcrusader101 Well yes,yes we do.

  • this sent shivers up and down my spine the whole time no joke....

  • I've seen this movie like 10 times, but the things i see here i never seen in the movie?

  • All the soldiers are the same, fighting for the same reasons behind different banners.. No soldier is an animal.. You can get forced or tricked to do anything how horrible it might even be in War.. The real monsters are the ones behind the desks, Thinking war & lives is a game to play with... RIP all the soldiers doesnt matter what country, germany,england,usa,sweden,chi­na,somalia. It doesnt matter!

  • @Morshfrozenfury I'm Joining the Irish Army next year.We all have are part to play.If it ever comes to taking up arms and defending my country and my people i will do it with pride.If my life is taking during it may God have mercy on my soul.IDF

  • @Morshfrozenfury great post.

  • @Morshfrozenfury your right but war can only be seen illustrated unless you join the war :( and yes RIP all the soldiers whom fought in those grate battles which we now rember today.. to really feel the emotian in war i would play one of those video games.. to get a good sence of how hard it must have been.. or watching videos like this one can be helpful to ..we are doing vietnarm warfare in history ...it's a very hard topic ..lots of people were crying halfway through the topic :(

  • @Morshfrozenfury couldn't have said it better, thank you.

  • @Morshfrozenfury You are right. Brakes my hearth to hear stupid people saying that the soldiers fighting for Hitler was pigs, and may they burn in hell. They did not at have a choice, many were forced away from their familiy, and never came back for dinner. Yes there will allways be a few monster in a army, the one who pulled the button to let out the gas, but many of them were just normal young men who didnt have a choice ):

  • @Morshfrozenfury Somalias are nothing but pieces of fucking shit who deserve to die everyone of them

  • @armyranger1531 you got that right truer words have never been said

  • @armyranger1531 when did you become god -.- muppet

  • @armyranger1531 STFU you ignorant fuck,God made us all but bitches like you whoe the listen to every fucking lie that they are told without reasoning it people who think killing other is good ........are LESS THAN HUMANS!

  • @MrVirtualpainter your a fucking idiot STFU and look around you! the worlds not your fucking community terrorist fucking use schools for there artillery pieces so when the US fire back we end up killing civilians! not all killing is good but some of it is!

  • @TheCtk97 How did the war start with Somali?

    Tell me you twat , you call people who defend their country terriost@?just like in Palestine they tried defending their country the land that was taken from them and now they are called terrorist iam not saying everyone is good what i am trying to say is just because you call yourself "President" and you wear a fancy suit doesnt make you less of a terrorist

  • @MrVirtualpainter dude thats the biggest pile of crap iv ever herd do you know even what ur talking about!

  • @Morshfrozenfury somolies are nothing but wothless pieces of shit that deserve to die each and everyone of them

  • @Morshfrozenfury thank u for saying..that...my grandfather died in ww2 its just so sad to what we are force to do in war...kill....torture........p­illage...bomb....knifing its just horrible.....

  • @Morshfrozenfury bro im with you on that.

  • Semper Fidelis United States Marines...

    For the better for the worse, The United States Marines will serve under the love and the loyalty of the United States of America. And even though there is corruption from Wall Street and there are men out there dying loosing there lives and there families they still serve under the United States Marines.

    Semper Fidelis - United States Marines...

  • RIP to those who died of ignorant warfare

  • 0:50 Enemy napalm strike inbound!!!!!

    0:57 Nobody dead... as the usaul... thanks CoD.....

  • @rapidfirebunnyrabbit im not tryinng to be crude or mean, but your comment is innapropriate for the video.

  • @rapidfirebunnyrabbit Unlike a stupid simulated game, this is based on people who died in that battle..

  • @rapidfirebunnyrabbit

    well oviously you have not soul or backbone, wouldn't doubt if you became a polotician...

  • @sparkygamer101 It was just a joke man. I like to see the funny side of things instead of the bad. My grandfather actually died in the Vietnam War due to the misplacement of a napalm strike. But it's funny TO ME to make a COD reference.

  • @rapidfirebunnyrabbit

    sorry, i'm just defensive about this kind of stuff.

    i like to see the funny side too but there really isn't anything funny about it. and I do see where the CoD references come it :P I play it pretty commonly

    and just as a side note, I'm a chick, not a man.

  • @sparkygamer101 Your right, the people we should be focusing on hating is the people that sit in chairs all day and think wars and lives are a game to play with. You're comepletely right.

  • Without the sacrfices of these men who gave heir lives for our country and eachother we would not be the great country we are now they will never be forgotten in my mind and in my heatr

  • @armyranger1531

    I wonder what country you live in... The America that was once great has been far and away lost to enemies, of the domestic kind. You can tout the grandeur of this Nation all you want, but until you understand that it was wars like Vietnam and any others that were never declared, that have stripped this country from a Constitutional Republic, governed by the rule of law, and turned it into an engine for the New World Order Empire, you are only blowing smoke.

  • @jadowd723 Although I to some extent agree that USA has lost its way, I strongly believe that spouting that NWO bullshit is just that. Bullshit.

  • @TheGnolla

    @TheGnolla really?

    You mean to tell me that you actually can't see past the paradigm of lies to see that ALL political leaders around the globe are calling for a single ruling entity? Even the Pope has called foe a central global bank, one of the 5 planks of the communist manifesto... You have served this country and you still refuse to believe that there is a global conspiracy to consolidate power under a single ruling entity?

    

  • @jadowd723 I only see your paranoia and conspiracy theory. I have not served the USA, if that's what you mean by "this country". I HAVE served 3 years with the armed forces of Norway, though. ;)

  • @TheGnolla

    my bad, I thought you were a Vietnam vet...

    But there IS a rise of a New World Order... It is more and more evident by the day, and it is in line with biblical prophesy... so I have no reason to doubt that it is happening... especially when George Bush Sr told us that they were building it in 1991... Sept 11, 1991, as a matter of fact.

    Just because you do not see it does not mean that it does not exist. You have to take the red pill, and maintain an open mind. Good luck.

  • whats the name of this show or movie?

  • @Elitepred5 The movie was produced by and starred Mel Gibson. Usually referred to as 'We Were Soldiers' based on the book 'We Were Soldiers Once and Young'

  • @Elitepred5 Its a movie,called "We were soliders"

  • May God continue to bless and protect the brave men and women of our armed forces, and give strength and comfort to their families.

  • Missing my dad who's killd in war in Iraq..

    R.I.P dad

  • @MrPiggy565

    Oh, that is awful. I am truly sorry. I hope the best for you, and I respect everything your father did for all of us. I wish you the best.

  • @MrPiggy565 my brtoher is in iraq but i sorry for ur loss

  • @zombiekilla39 i meant brother

  • @MrPiggy565 :'( he passed into heaven as a hero! sorry for your lose, seeing comments like this break my fucking heart. and im a 20 year old man joinging the army. we really are gods fighters, we do nothing but the right thing and people like to twist stories around and make us look bad. were just trying to do the right thing

  • @MrPiggy565 sorry to hear that,but he is in a better place now

  • @MrPiggy565 war in Iraq and Avganistan is terrible mistake of the USA, your dad should knew that facts... Think about Iraqy children who also missing their parents and it is coused from the bad politics of the USA... tell it that facts to your goverment and president Clinton and Bush...

  • Great War Movie!! Full of action and emotion..... as if i was in the war...

  • we were soldiers sucks it was openly typical propaganda movie

  • WHAT SONG IS THIS CUZ IT MADE ME CRY AND IM A 14 YEAR OLD KID

  • Viet vets please see In The Fave Of Evil, it may help you to understand the true nature of the evil you were fighting against. God bless and keep you always in His tender loving care. With utmost respect and appreciation and unending support.

  • I cried my heart out at the end...hits you hard.

  • @iamthegodofwar666 YEAH WHEN THEY SHOWING THE BLACK AND WHIT PICS

  • The only flaw of this video is the title? Doesn't even make sense :3

  • @shanglies read the description -_-. it says it's made up of clips from We were soldiers.

    Therefore it totally makes sense.

  • Does anyone know the name of this soundtrack?

  • If you read the book by hal moore and joe galloway you become really attached to these people during the movie..makes me want to cry everytime

  • mel gibson is amazing

  • I don't cry from movies. But the ending of this movie really was very moving and sad at the same time. I've never cried like I did at the end of this movie. And until now, I've been ignorant of what a war really is and the tragedy of it. So thank you to all the men who fought in the wars and I am deeply appreciative of what you did for us.

  • loveeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee this move

  • @MrNikesGolf1 I think the youths fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan are fully aware of what war means. Every kid grows up wanting to be a solider or a hero, it isn't new to this generation, and it wasn't new to the generations before this one either.

  • Beautiful clip, but the montage was destroyed by changing the music theme at "Gentlemen, prepare to defend yourselves".

  • be a soldier is no being a killer... is to become the shield and sword of you love ones...... we fight.... we die.....and we kill to protect what we think is right

    From here to the ending of the world we in it shall be remembered we lucky few we band of brother from he who today sheds his blood with me shall be my brother

  • I hate it when people judge me wanting to be a marine just beacause i play CoD. I have been wanting to be a marine way before i was aloud to even play CoD.

  • I was listening to this music the moment i heard my Sister had taken her life. So sad and very emotional.

  • @easyworship I'm disliking this not because I'm putting it down. I'm disliking it because I dislike that you had to go through that.

  • oorah

  • :( 

  • RIP sgt Graham white best cuz ever

  • Remember the Pentagon Papers !! What are we fighting for ??? What a loss.. Sad.. been their. We , the poor people, fighting for the rich people so as they can make BIG bucks .... did they send their sons and daughters to war? Hell NO !! We did our best and got screwed by the VA and our country !!!! Stop watching the movies produced by the pentagon. they want to suck you in to make big profits !!!

  • rest in peace all american serviceman and women who lie down thier lives for our country and for eachother

  • All wars are civil wars, because all men are brothers.

  • This film reminds me of hamburger hill,realistic combat scenes,mostly believable characters.But just a little to melodramatic.Check out full metal jacket,cold as ice.

  • anyone know what the music is or where it's from?

  • why would u kill someone trying to hlp his comrad?

  • @austin1658 It's called war.

  • @austin1658 its war. you kill him before he kills you, son.

  • wasnt sgnt makenzi or how ever u spell it. is he the on who got burned by the broken arrow?

  • @austin1658 no but that part almost made me cry

  • im going in as a ranger. the most powerful military force. they go to wars alot. i hope i survive. (Only the dead have seen the end of war.) : Plato.

  • Listen, we were never supposed to be in vietnam do you want to know how many people we killed? 58000 and the poor vietnamese 1.1 million that is including women and children what were we fighting for? If that war never happened we would still have american citizens to this very day! What is happening to America were killing our country us our people...

  • Nice video, but I'm not gonna write any shit about children.

  • what is the name of the soundtrack?

  • war is dirty business ask any soldier in the world from any country would second this opinion..

  • They did not die for the wrong cause idk bout you but I did not wake up a commie bastard today. They died for their country and the men around them

  • too bad they all died for the wrong cause, serving the elites and killing the innocent. too bad.

  • Warhero's. All of them who fought,

  • I met Joe Gallaway, the 'ACTUAL MAN' man who photographed the battle at LZ X-RAY and LTC (now LtGen Moore), truly amazing hearing him discuss what happened there. for all those Nambi Pambi assholes out there who's only perception of war is either from TV or effin video games! Why don't you ask and talk to one of these fine men who served for our nation. Hooah! God Bless the men who Perished and gave the ultimate sacrifice.

  • Only the dead have seen the end of the war

  • @wolfrainfan1 plato

    

  • @wolfrainfan1 Black Hawk Down

  • @wolfrainfan1 Plato- Man of genius

  • @PaintBallerNation13 he truely is

  • @wolfrainfan1 Plato. Good quoting sir :D

  • @wolfrainfan1 Well said

  • This was or is one the best Vietnam movies ever. In my town 5 went together 4 came home. I was a Navy wife at that time was hard to hear the names my husband was called. He didn't deserve that. God Rest his Soul

  • nothing but respect

  • watch?v=KnYAC2_hnKg

    ''SAVING MY PRIVATES" (2011 - tom hanks)

    a MUST see video. you need a good stomach - added yesterday

  • Best movie ever and really good video

  • This film had all the elements of Brave Heart vs Rambo. They could have make a much better film with the budget they spend on it!

    The guy who is dying and says: ''At least i died for my country!'' and ''Tell my wife I love her!'' gives a good resume of this film which is: Not worth watching again.

  • best video ever

  • This movie is worth researching. Lt. Gen Hal Moore, US Army, Ret. was the commander (played by Mel Gibson) in this battle. He was a Lt. Col. at the time. When approached about making the movie, he said no. He did finally agree, but insisted he was there for the filming - all of it. This may be the most historically accurate war film to date. Gen. Moore and all of his soldiers were and are true American heroes.

  • Check out MrCODisAwesome's profile! He has some great information! XBOX CHEATS!

  • That war was hell but leader like the major in the begining made it worth fighting hell itself...nice video by the way really touching.

  • This film reminds me of hamburger hill.One of the most real,raw vietnam war films.But no originality,and too much melodrama.Full metal jacket is not the most realistic,but its the most powerfully,endlessly entertaining vietnam film ive seen.Nothing can match the suspense i felt watching the first time.Apocalypse now (original)great until the contrived and self-important last act.But we were soldiers is fair,ok at best.its clearly better than the laughably bad platoon and casualties of war.

  • My uncle was a Major In vietnam and I know another man who was a Major in Vietnam he told me that he saw stuff that people would never want to see...

  • The vietnamese were pagan dogs...

  • my dad was in the vietnam war with the 101st airborne and the man at 1:42 was Jack gagon he was a good man.
