[Crikin5]

[TheKILLA317]

My grandfather who fought in WW2 told me that the Australians are the toughest soldiers he has ever seen!!!

[Kokoda144]

1:37 i dont have any proof but all of the stories i have heard is that aussies didnt wear helmets

[laidesman215]

@Kokoda144 hats mate hats

[Eshayzbra96]

@Kokoda144 no the slouch hat was a tradional thing but in WW1 and in some cases WW2 and maybe korea we did wear helmets

[Kokoda144]

@Eshayzbra96 i was referring to nam with their bushies.

[AlienFirefox]

[ctenar1970]

For the many people in the world,the Vietnam war was the stain of USA

@ctenar1970

Why don't you just shut your commie bastard pie hole there, comrade. And stop your cheap Viet Cong commie propaganda while you're at it, too.

[ctenar1970]

because there dirty swines like you commend babie's killers for their murdering in my country,that's why I must write,through I do not write yet.

[IamAdumbAssVietCong]

@ctenar1970

There, there, the commie bastards are angels and never murdered anyone? Like I said why don't you shut your trap with the cheap propaganda and learn English before trying hard to show off your stupidity lil' commie shithead. :-]

[ctenar1970]

The winer is more brainy than the loser.This is undeniable.Rather shut up.I'm learning English.

[IamAdumbAssVietCong]

@ctenar1970 I think you want sympathy, right? Look this word up between Shit and Syphillis, comrade. Like I said shut your trap. Get out of the kitchen if you can;t stand the heat, ya dumb commie bastard.

[IamAdumbAssVietCong]

@ctenar1970 Go home and learn English before you try so hard and hurt yourself there, comrade. No body feel sorry for you if that was what you're looking for.

- Oh ! I'm learning English.

Poor lil' shithead commie. Cry me a river why don't you. :)

[toiacvietcong]

@ctenar1970 "Baby-killers eh?"...It's now passe to use these terms since the public the world over has learned that they were the product of the left-leaning american media, which takes its cue from the (capitalists) establishment when it was ready to move out of the VN theater for the bigger prize: China. Everything that's reported by the american media needs to be thought over, i.e. why it keeps talking about the My Lai massacre while totally ignoring the Tet 68 Massacre ?

[ctenar1970]

the coward bastards were American murders and their flunkies ,who were shameful losers in the Vietnam war

[toiacvietcong]

@ctenar1970 You still don't get it, do you ? The real losers were VNese in this conflict by being pawns to major power countries. Who was the chief culprit ? Nobody else but Ho chi Minh and his band of thugs. Their crimes against VN are so numerous that it'll take years to compile once we wrestle our beloved country back from thugs and robbers and mass-murderers like you. How dare you pimp our girls to Chinese, Koreans, Taiwanese, etc and let them die in shame in faraway places ?

[SuperWeststigers]

@toiacvietcong mate with a user name like this you would have to be a commie bitch,im proud of the australian soilders and what they achived in vietnam,i was not born then but what i can gather you commie c#nts tested the australian abillity in the battle of long tan and we kicked your butts so you never delibretily engadged the australians again.the best soilder in the world the aussie.with some of the shit you wrote i wish you never made it through the war....comunist way is not the way..

[toiacvietcong]

@SuperWeststigers You got me all wrong there mate. I am anti-communist. I was born in South Vietnam, and I witnessed personally crimes perpetrated by VCs against civilians in the name of their so-called misguided liberation war, which in fact was nothing but acts of destruction, robbery, and murdering to satisfy Ho chi Minh's masters' (Russians/Chinese communists) orders.Read up on HCM's indoctrination stage (early 1920s) to see why the free world saw his true colors and refused to help him

[toiacvietcong]

@ctenar1970 That's what the USA wants the world to believe in. In reality, a new world order had been carved out when Nixon visited China in 1972, laying out the steps to destroy the Soviet Union (something that Nixon is obsessed with throughout his life). Japan was becoming the USA's largest creditor, and Nixon wanted to China to equalize/neutralize Japan's effects on the world economy scene...Get the picture yet ?

[Fubarask]

I am a Canadian, this is tremendous tribute to your countries hero's...it acts as a witness to their sacrifice...and keeps the memories of the fallen alive and respected....God Bless

I am going to post a song I worte for our 40000 hero's, who crossed the border joined the US military to fight in Vietnam...as Canada was not in the fight...after the war both goverments ,US and Canada, forgot these hero's..and they were pushed into a black hole...they are my hero's

Brilliant song, sincerity gives spirit. Memories are not the easiest things to sing about about when they dedicated to the dead who deserve more respect. Those things our next generation need to remember. 5* Blessings from Earth +++ The Saint +++

[Gigolo8]

Sing it out mate, and do more!

5* and SHared.

[dvdesign11]

I agree. I met George a number of years ago up here in Mossman FNQ. On one steamy Saturday at the pub chook raffles, George pulled out his trusty old guitar and belted out this great song. I was struck with the honesty of this Aussie ballad and offered to help him do a music clip. This is the result, I'll be helping George do more (he has loads more). Glad to here you enjoyed his great talent. It'd be great to get some help to George with exposure out there. Keep watching.

Davo.

[Gigolo8]

NO worries mate, get involved in the site and the people will come to you.

[ggdavies11]

Its taken me awhile but Ive finally arrived thanx for your support sorry I didnt get here sooner

[Gigolo8]

I hope you're going to post up some more of your work, we need more home grown, original, artists like yourself to tell the story of Aussies as an Aussie saw it happen.

[ggdavies11]

Thanx greatly for your kind words

[Gigolo8]

No worries!
