My dad is retired Army and served 2 tours in Viet-nam as a Crew Chief and Door Gunner on the Huey GunShips! The Deans and The Razorbacks! The first year he was there , he was at Ton Son Nhut Airfield in Saigon. His second year he was there he was in Cu Chi. He was wth the 25th Infantry Division there.
He originally went there from Fort Bragg. Simmons Army Airfield
@USACLINTEASTWOOD Yeah you're right. We had to (!) burn Congs due to their political beliefs did not match ours. You're just sleeping in an unreal world which has been created especially for this shit.
To everyone who called these guys baby killers back when the war was going on and to all the protesters, they did what they had to and served this country well.
and to those vietnamese that now live in america? no that u came to usa cuz u were goin to get killed by the communist. and u still diss the country u now live in? wow get the fuck outta here u fucken zipperhead. leave ur woman so we can fuck there tight pussy while ur litte dicks go back to nam and fuck ur self in the jungle.
its funny how chinese kills vietnamese fishermen and they dont do anything back. why vietnamese scared now that china is the biggest military in the world?
desertfox - Yeah just helping. If by helping you mean dropping 7.8 MILLION TONS of bombs on Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia all in pursuit of propping up corrupt, illegitimate and (in Diem's case) cruel and oppressive regimes in South Vietnam, instituting illegal war tactics such as "free fire" zones and "reconnaissance by fire" and committing war atrocities like My Lai. What a miserable sordid affair.
Former medic of "The Tiger Force" Harold Fischer recalled: "We entered the village and simply shooting at everybody. We do not need a pretext. If they were here, they died".
Describing the extreme cruelty shown against peasants, the former hospital attendant of platoon Larry Kottinghem has told: «It was when everyone carried a necklace of the cut off ears».

@sergynkov MR. SERGYNKOV IS RUSSIAM ARMY CRIMINAL WAR IN CHECHNYA. MENTAL AND CRIMINAL SICK PERSON OF WAR. COWARD WHO KILLED CHILDREN IN THE CHECHNYA.
FREEDOM VIETNAM, TIBET, CHECHNYA, IRAN, CUBA AND LAOS.
@sergynkov Unhappy Communist who poured napalm in the Afeganistão and countries of the European East, in my nation we have democracy and its nation and a communist military dictatorship that killed more than Hitler. Its mother made sex with me for US$ 15,00 and it drank vodca Russian. Cursed Communist, I killed Russians I eat servile you when in the Bosnia.
If America had not involved the war, South Vietnam would have fallen into communism in 1954 and more Vietnamese would have been murdered in cultural revolutions like those launched by Mao in China (20 million deaths) and Khmer Rouge in Cambodia (2 millions)
Total Vietnamese democide by communists:1,040,000 (1975-87) by UNHCR
Oh shut up you fucking hippy lover. Despite the fact we just gave up the fighting, 58,000 American against 6 million gooks is a pretty good score. Yes I said gooks! Doesnt that annoy you?
Drop the hippie shtick, sweetheart, the time where that was funny has long since passed and you aren't witty enough to make it into something.
What a totally useless war, perpetuated and championed (to this day I notice) by impotent, slack-jawed weasels.
The Vietcong may have been killing American soldiers, but only because American soldiers were present on their territory and interfering in their own revolution.
Imagine if Spain randomly invaded the US in the Revolutionary War.
Vietnam and Cambodia were part of an imperial French Indochina.
After WW2, Ho Chi Minh used the chaos to seize power and declare Vietnam a free country. He praised the US and even cited that goddamn Declaration of Independence.
US says no, French colonialism is more important than supporting a free country in Indochina ---> Vietnam War.
That's how it happened. It had nothing to do with "helping" the Vietnamese, it had to do with keeping them a prisoner of France.
@ImtheDesertFox Desert, this will be hard to understand for an american, particularly conservative in viewpoint, but in the "world's" eyes, you weren't helping anything, in fact it was a pitiful waste of young lives for what? you tell me? to stop communism spreading, please spare me. A manmade war again to suit the hobnobs make some cash, nothing more. American people pay the full cost in every way and are brainwashed to boot.
@BaldwynmayhemI have 2 uncles that served in Vietnam and they both say the same thing.It was a clusterfuck and there was no reason why we should have been there.
@ImtheDesertFox The fuckin dirtbag hippies were actually some of the most hateful people.Mostly rich kids whose parents could send them to college.The poor kids had no choice but the hippies hated them anyway.
Yes, these are Hueys, angels on the shoulders of those heroic enough to stop a bunch of sadistic uneducated brainwashed peasants. The song is called Jumpin Jack Flash by the Rolling stones.
@Baldwynmayhem Yeah, I knew that. But Rolling Stones are so common, it's like they're here anyway. You can't get rid of them, and I wouldn't have it any other way. :)
@asianwannabeamerican Theres no reason why you can't be American.Just get a green card and pay taxes for 7 years and you're all good.You can live and work here with a green card.
@thissitesucks74 Thanks for that encouragement but I don't need to do that. I was already born here. by the way, even though your uncles don't feel they deserve thanks for serving in Vietnam, they do. Believe me, it was a mess but as an American with both Cambodian and Vietnamese parents, I know that your uncles did the right thing.
I hope you mean you support the war in 'Nam not Vietnam itself because as a Vietnamese-American, I only wish that we could have killed more bad guys and actually won the war.
