'When turned over to the press and Government by the photographer, those “unofficial” photographs provided the grounds for a court martial. Haeberle's[photographer assigned to Charlie Company] personal images (owned by himself and not the US Government) showed hundreds of villagers who had been killed by U.S. troops. More significantly, they showed that the dead were primarily women and children, including infants.'
all the American whining about Vietnam and the syndrome is pathetic. Many of the soldiers volunteered, they went just for a limited amount of time, they got paid, fed, clothed, they could smoke weed and shag things. There are still men alive in Vietnam who started fighting at the age of 16 and finished at 50, they are not many as most of them are dead. Often, they couldn't even choose the side, malnourished with a substantial part of the family dead, you do not see them in veteran nuthouses
My uncle was in Vietnam he said it was the worst experiance in his life he said he and one of his buddys were out on patrol and his buddy had to take a piss and he said be right back and he went to walk he stepped straight onto a rope trap my uncle heard him yelling so he went over there and the first thing he saw was two congs cutting hes buddy open my uncles first reaction was YOU MOTHER FUCKERS they both turn around in time just to see my uncle shoot them my uncle went over cried for30minutes
They spent years crawling through the mud and watching their friends get painted red probably got cut open by "cong" traps many many times and this is the thanks they get i think we could support them a little more than that Happy veterans day to all
I spent my 18th, 19th, and 20th birthdays there as a very young baby Infantry Sergeant daily leading young boys and sometimes even younger men into situations our Lord never intended his greatest creations to ever have to experience in this lifetime. I pray daily for the 63.287 souls of my brothers and sisters who never came home from the war of my youth now decades ago.
I find Vietnam as a horrible war, where men were used as guine pigs for the governments acts to stop a other governments acts upon another country, I am not "hating" on the vets, I just find it sick how much families had to have the flag of their son/brother/father etc. returned to them, so much american blood pointlessly shed for a filthy war that lasted 10 years in resolution to defeat, pointless pointless pointless we should keep our nose out of other countries' buisness before it gets broken
i really like this tribute. my dad is a Vietnam vet and has one eye which he lost there. he would prolly cry to this tribute he lost many friends during vietnam.
thank you for this tribute my grandfather faught in the vietnam war 2 tours i have heard his stories it was complete hell the men who fought in this war deserve our respect because our government was making them fight for a war that we couldnt finish so many brave men fought and died for a lost causeand for that they deserve al of our respect
"I knew that America would never invest the necessary funds or energies in rehabilitation of its poor so long as Vietnam continued to draw me and skills and money like some demonic, destructive suction tube. So I was increasingly compelled to see the war as an enemy of the poor and to attack it as such."
- Martin Luther King, Jr., civil rights, antipoverty, and antiwar activist, 196791
@COMMUNISTPHILOSOPHY dude you realize this is a tribute for the soldiers who fought, died and became disabled during this conflict. not the war itself.
Great pairing of music and images. Thank you, Motorhead938. I have watched this several times over the last year or so, and it still affects me each time. There is much about that conflict and our involvement the puplic may never know. I do know that the soldiers witnessed unimaginable horrors, and those who were there deserve tributes like this and more.
This is one of those video's that just makes you think. Why is war as a whole needed. Sure you can say its to serve your country or to crush evil but why the loss of life? Why cant it all just stop.
OMG THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST TRIBUTES OUT THERE! WHAT I WOULDN'T GIVE TO WIPE AWAY ALL MY DAD'S TEARS OR HOLD HIS HAND. HE WAS KILLED IN VIETNAM IN 1971 AFTER ENLISTING A SECOND TIME. HE HAD NO REGRETS OTHER THAN MISSING HOME. HE BELIEVED IN WHAT THEY WERE SENT THERE FOR AND HE HELPED ALOT OF PEOPLE THERE. THAT WAR WAS NOT ALL ABOUT AMERICANS KILLING. THEY WERE ALSO THERE TO PROTECT AND HELP THE PEOPLE OF VIETNAM.
Nice vidéo, Never forget the boy's and girls who served, died and missing in that awful war between 1965 and 1975. Average 19 years old. God bless them...
All the hippies and pay the soldiers out, they say all that shit now but when war comes they will be the one in the corner crying and who will they look for to fight away the big bad people? soldiers like these boys thats who...you should just think some time how bad they had it and remember the sacrifices they made...freedom is never free, and there are millions of boys who paid for it with there blood, swet and tears.
es triste de los miles de niños que murieron, digo niños porque a los 18 o 19 todavian eran niños y los que los mandaron bien a gusto en su casas viendo todo por television
The biggest bullcrap is that the nation didn't support the troops. I don't think that we should have been there but at least support the people dying for your country. The 60's were the worst time in America's history
Thank you for posting! Great job. Lyrics work very well with the subject. It's so easy for the public to erase from memory what these men (boys) went through. This is a strong reminder.
thank you for this film i served in the navy during vietnam doing two tours of duty aboard the uss yorktown.and welcome home to all those vets out there .
I've read all of stuff -- and miss my uncles who are still rotting somewhere in Russia. What's missing here is the acknowledgement that 3.4 million Vietnamese died in their fight to regain their beautiful country, never mind those injured and with ruined lives. Is it OK if we build a wall somewhere with 3.4 Million Vietnamese names on it? Do we pray for them too? or are they just -- "gooks" as Americans say.
Thank you motorhead.....there is not a day that go's by that I do not think about those wonderful guys I left behind...I miss them.... John..... Company M... 3rd Bn... 4th Marines Viet Nam 1964.. !966/67.
The way I see it if you dont like this video then take you and your draft dodging family elsewere cause your daddy probly was a draft dodger and you probly ran off to school after 9/11 and your kids will do the same which makes your whole damn family FUCKING WORTHLESS, Thank youfrom me and my father and grandfather and great grand father and great great grandfather, cause my family KILLS FOR PEACE
my grandpa was a doorgunner on the hue helicopter. godbless all those who fought for our country. and then there is countries out there disrespecting us and not showing any respect for us when we saved them from hitler and many others. god bless america and i hope all those "COMMIES" sees us from who we are. god bless those who fought ww2 vietnam or any war. just remember we are america and we are free.
I have an uncle that was there , you don't know pain til you hear an old man talk about the things he saw there with tears in his eyes. God Bless the troops. Past present and future
maybe the war wasnt a great choice but do u people who bitch really think it was their choice without these men and women u wouldnt even have the right to say those things so quit bitching
i cant agree more my dad was 101st airbourne during vietnam and he is disabled hasnt worked since 1999 and and i agree that liberals shouldnt be pushing them around like this how bout they tell us wat they were doing during this time they were ALL prob in Canada fucking pussies i respect the hell out of ALL vets who put there lives on the line for us
Beautiful tribute. Thank you for your effort to help heal the emotional wounds of the Vietnam Veterans and make the rest of us aware of their need for comfort, recognition and love. You have done a very good thing. Judge Joyce Murphy Gorman
If you're replying to my comment about being sick...then you misread MY post. I was calling korearichie sick for saying not enough soldiers died in Vietnam. How would that sit with you, seeing as your dad is a vietnam vet?
There is nothing wrong with doing a tribute with images, no one asked you to come in here and watch it. Then to come in here with bad grammar and profanity towards people who did nothing wrong, come on. Be damn thankful you didn't see combat, lots more did and suffer daily.
Criminal cursed its of war, unhappy Communist who supported and fought for Pol Pot of Cambodia to kill 4 million innocent brothers in Cambodia. Ctenar1970, and a criminal of war of KHMER ROUGE. Ctenar1970, and a mental, criminal sick person of war, coward who killed children in the Vietnam of Sul and Cambodia
You have your own life, let them live theirs as they want. You weren't there so how do you know that this video makes them want to drink? You were what 14 years old when Saigon fell in 1975. I wasn't there either but my father was, and I and anyone else will never know what he went through unless we were there. So word of advice, dont give advice unless you were there.
You ever think these types of videos help some people? It may not help everyone but it helps some. Myself being one, these style of videos while sad do help me. My war is different from Vietnam, but the loss I feel I almost guarantee is the same type of pain felt by those who served in vietnam. And these types of videos help my mind get thinking about those lost and it triggers the good memories not the bad ones.
Also, clean your mouth up a little, you represent your generation of veterans, do you want your generation of veterans to be represented by the words you chose below?
Think on that, I'm out, great video Motorhead938, did your brothers proud.
Maybe you can get a life and stop saying such sick and hateful things about the people who fought the war. My dad is a vietnam vet and has to live with the images of that living hell he went through, because of that he is disabled and hasn't worked since '86. I know there are thousands living the same way. The least you can do is support them, not come in here with your hate, saying things like not enough soldiers died..you're sick dude!!!!
For starters asshole, I wasnt saying anything bad about our servicemen you sappy fuck.
FACT, I avtually helped a Temor veteren from ending his life because he used to watch these fuckin vids.
And for the record, my dad was a vietnam vet too.
NO, there is no hate toward my brothers, yes, I am a veteren too, not of Nam, but a vet so if your a music maker and your dealing with your way, fine, deal with it, dont push your sappy music vids with pics of dead soldiers and babies on it you freek fuck
You have totally misread my thread or your just plain ignorant.
Do what I said to MGKUSMC and go fuck yourself. because like him, you misread the post and my intent was only to tell those who are veterens, LIKE ME, to not watch them.
I have been fortunate to not see combat but have many friends who have died and who have not.
If my tool works for one, what the fuck is your beef?
hey paytheonn you can not read a damn word of what i said why don't you move along with you dumbass and read it again of what i said these men died over there for nothing trying to help people that didn't want help so read the shit again and shut the hell up
of mine would have appreciated this. Thank you to all of the Viet vets who got a bumb rap.And by the way... FUCK all of the liberals who say otherwise!!!
this was a pointless war useless what did we accomplish there nothing just our boys dying in vien just like our boys in iraq come home safely guys i teared up just by typing
who are you so say such a thing. And guess what there not your boys. We want nothing to do with people like you. What went on there in Iraq are many good things too. Remember a demo pres put our boys in this fight. If you ask most who have been in a combat zone they are honored to say so. People like you will never know, all you can do is judge..
How about you take your pointless ass out of here. Nobody is interested in your pacifist coward views. Regardless of right, wrong, left or right, I don't believe this trubute to those vets had anything to do with your coward views. Now shutup and move along.
The Vietnam war was a waste of Lives. We would take a hill or a like villiage and then the next day we would go back to base and do nothing. Then the viet kong would take the hill and or villiage and then we would try to take it. Nice Tribute.
This war is not one im so attached to, sinze i'm from Norway, but we recived alot of refuges to Norway due to the war.
Im generally intrested in war/combat etc. and i think this has to be a great tribute to all the soldiers that fought in this war...it definitly moved me...
War is kinda like having friends if u hit one of my friends im gonna stick up for them that's wat allies are for if u attack them were gonna attack u back
You think it was bad for us? We lost approximentaly 50,000 soldiers. You know how many they lost? Approximentaly one million soldiers. Then later on at the end of the war, 2 million were counted after they counted the civilians. We anihilated them, yet it wasn't our war so we just left. I hate when people try to say we lost. If we really wanted to win we could of nuked them. We killed too many of their people, and felt it was uneccesary for us to watse more men, and kill more of theirs.
Well with the main focus on being a war of attrition, doing search and destroy missions, we completely murdered them. But a few years after the peace treaty, they stormed Saigon, and President Ford didn't follow the promise that President Nixon had of "Bringing back the bombers" If the treaty was broken. Its the same with the war in Iraq today. It cant be won, with no support on the home front. Technically the war was over when Saddam Hussein was taken out of power. Then why are we still there?
@TrueUSMarine dont be an idiot. If you really wanted to win the goverment would have put more trained soilders into Vietnam. Did you know a lot of US soilders didnt know or even care about where Vietnam was? The soilders hated it there and there was such a shortage of High ranking generals or Lt they had any soilder be put in them ranks
This is funny. If you go through the ranks of Military today, Vietnam vets are spoken about as if they were gods. These people that served here have started a legacy that will only grow.
Mainly because they came home to a country that, in a word "hated" them. We Americans finaly started to realise the fult. Young men were sent to fight and die for their country which they did without a second thought. This was one hell of a brutal war.
My dad was there and I am so proud of him and love him so much! My daughter is doing her 8th grade Honors history project about him!! Love yo so much Dad. Mike Co. rocks and so do you!!!
Great Job, My father Leonard B Harootunian Sr was in Nam from 1962- 1967 and just passed away from lung cancer at the age of 58 September 2008 died from Aent Orange all those years later and bit him in the ass , I feel for all our soliders who fought and are fighting and who have died in action Rest In Peace all of our fallen soliders, WE WILL NEVER FORGET !!! Leonard B Harootunian, Jr
very touching, ya know they say a grown man can never cry thats wrong.the picture show in 4:17 really made me think about how many people died serving our country, and yet there will be many more to come. good job +20/10
Geeze, they're all just babies-- young kids! It breaks my heart to think of their cruel "welcome home", at the time.
I was just a little girl then, & didn't know the "shame" that so many attributed to the vietnam vets, themselves. Years later, I fully understand my mother's heartache, knowing her son, my brother, was serving. I only wish she were alive to see the internet @ its finest, as w/this tribute.
God bless you, Motorhead, for making this video/slideshow.
The 58,148 men on The Wall will always be there to ensure that I never forget this war and the sacrifices that these men had made. Rest In Peace men of Vietnam.
My uncle, John O'Grady, had been a Marine in this war. He had fought the NVA at Hue, he never talked about Vietnam much, said it brought back bad memories. He said that in war you might be fighting for your country, but in truth you are fighting for what is standing to your left and your right, your comrades. My granddad who had fought in WW2 nodded solemnly and said "thats right". He was actually spit on by hippies when he returned. Screw anyone who didn't serve in this war like a patriot.
To the idiot who says we lost . We never lost 1 battle over there- you cant say that about ant other war!! TG* 1st Brigade/ 755th Medical Detachment 170th Bikini/Buccaneers Dak-To>Pleiku -1970-+-
Thank you for this beautiful tribute and I thank the soldiers who have fought and continue to fight to keep our country free and safe. My husband is a Vietnam Vet and we have a daughter who is a victim of Agent Orange. God bless those who lost their lives for our country.
Very powerful and moving video. Well done. Like jayjay stated, take your trash elsewhere. This was set up to honor and give tribute to the service people, male & female of all branches of the service who were "Man" enough to answered their country's call. No run off to Oxford or somewhere else.
Some US man like groveboy101 always show me, that how many ignorant people live in this world... Hate is everywhere. It looks equal, that a groveboy101-like USman wants me "put in front of a firing squad", or a holyIslamahmed77 wants to blow me up with an I.E.D. bomb...
Shame, people, it is just youtube, where people just talk with each other LOL
Shot GIs in the leg multiple times to draw out his buddies to help him. Shot wounded over and over. Set booby traps like toe poppers with the intent to maim, not kill. You should be put in front of a firing squad you disgraceful piece of shit.
What would you do, If in the future for ex. China invade your home town, and drop bombs to your house killing all your relatives? I think, you would do the same brutality on a lost chinese soldier.
I think in your abject point of wiev my only mistake is, that the value of US life and a Viet life worths equal for me.
i think u dont understand war...we as a majority show compassion n combat and follow the laws of war...and no matter wat our enemys do will continue to follow them
Listen here you dumb motherfucker. As long as humans exist there will be war, there's not a damn thing you, me, or anybody else can do about it. As for you supporting the Vietnamese, you treason-filled son of a bitch. Do you have any idea what those bastards did? Gave hookers tiny blades to kill American GIs. Desecrated American bodies. Lied them on top of bunkers with their dicks out, slit their throats and tied the bodies to trees.
I know it, groveboy101, I have read such things but my opinion will never change. There is another 200 countries on this Earth who didn't lose any soldiers in that war, because THEY HAVEN'T INVOLVED IT. Maybe war will exist all the time, but did US soldiers think, that war will be easy? "kill some yellows and we will be at home in 2 weeks without any problem" Or what? They went to kill, or not?

There is nothing wrong with doing a tribute with images, no one asked you to come in here and watch it. Then to come in here with bad grammar and profanity towards people who did nothing wrong, come on. Be damn thankful you didn't see combat, lots more did and suffer daily.

My brothers, watching these tribute vids of our fallen brothers with the sad music dont help for shit.
Makes you want to cry and then drink.
If your already drinking, , you drink more.
Then you start thinking about suicide.
Want to help yourself?
STOP WATCHING THE FUCKING SAD SONG TRIBUTE VIDS!!!

You have your own life, let them live theirs as they want. You weren't there so how do you know that this video makes them want to drink? You were what 14 years old when Saigon fell in 1975. I wasn't there either but my father was, and I and anyone else will never know what he went through unless we were there. So word of advice, dont give advice unless you were there.

You ever think these types of videos help some people? It may not help everyone but it helps some. Myself being one, these style of videos while sad do help me. My war is different from Vietnam, but the loss I feel I almost guarantee is the same type of pain felt by those who served in vietnam. And these types of videos help my mind get thinking about those lost and it triggers the good memories not the bad ones.

Maybe you can get a life and stop saying such sick and hateful things about the people who fought the war. My dad is a vietnam vet and has to live with the images of that living hell he went through, because of that he is disabled and hasn't worked since '86. I know there are thousands living the same way. The least you can do is support them, not come in here with your hate, saying things like not enough soldiers died..you're sick dude!!!!
csxt8058 2 years ago 28
For starters asshole, I wasnt saying anything bad about our servicemen you sappy fuck.
FACT, I avtually helped a Temor veteren from ending his life because he used to watch these fuckin vids.
And for the record, my dad was a vietnam vet too.
NO, there is no hate toward my brothers, yes, I am a veteren too, not of Nam, but a vet so if your a music maker and your dealing with your way, fine, deal with it, dont push your sappy music vids with pics of dead soldiers and babies on it you freek fuck

SICK?
What sick is not me trying to help veterens.
You have totally misread my thread or your just plain ignorant.
Do what I said to MGKUSMC and go fuck yourself. because like him, you misread the post and my intent was only to tell those who are veterens, LIKE ME, to not watch them.
I have been fortunate to not see combat but have many friends who have died and who have not.

You think it was bad for us? We lost approximentaly 50,000 soldiers. You know how many they lost? Approximentaly one million soldiers. Then later on at the end of the war, 2 million were counted after they counted the civilians. We anihilated them, yet it wasn't our war so we just left. I hate when people try to say we lost. If we really wanted to win we could of nuked them. We killed too many of their people, and felt it was uneccesary for us to watse more men, and kill more of theirs.
TrueUSMarine 2 years ago
Well with the main focus on being a war of attrition, doing search and destroy missions, we completely murdered them. But a few years after the peace treaty, they stormed Saigon, and President Ford didn't follow the promise that President Nixon had of "Bringing back the bombers" If the treaty was broken. Its the same with the war in Iraq today. It cant be won, with no support on the home front. Technically the war was over when Saddam Hussein was taken out of power. Then why are we still there?

@TrueUSMarine dont be an idiot. If you really wanted to win the goverment would have put more trained soilders into Vietnam.

Mainly because they came home to a country that, in a word "hated" them. We Americans finaly started to realise the fult. Young men were sent to fight and die for their country which they did without a second thought. This was one hell of a brutal war.

My uncle, John O'Grady, had been a Marine in this war. He had fought the NVA at Hue, he never talked about Vietnam much, said it brought back bad memories. He said that in war you might be fighting for your country, but in truth you are fighting for what is standing to your left and your right, your comrades. My granddad who had fought in WW2 nodded solemnly and said "thats right". He was actually spit on by hippies when he returned. Screw anyone who didn't serve in this war like a patriot.

Listen here you dumb motherfucker. As long as humans exist there will be war, there's not a damn thing you, me, or anybody else can do about it. As for you supporting the Vietnamese, you treason-filled son of a bitch. Do you have any idea what those bastards did? Gave hookers tiny blades to kill American GIs. Desecrated American bodies. Lied them on top of bunkers with their dicks out, slit their throats and tied the bodies to trees.
groveboy101 4 years ago
I know it, groveboy101, I have read such things but my opinion will never change. There is another 200 countries on this Earth who didn't lose any soldiers in that war, because THEY HAVEN'T INVOLVED IT. Maybe war will exist all the time, but did US soldiers think, that war will be easy? "kill some yellows and we will be at home in 2 weeks without any problem" Or what? They went to kill, or not?
