@benny334 a P J is a shortened acronym for Pararescue Jumper. they are highly trained airmen from the United States Air Force and their primary mission is to rescue Air Force pilots but may be assigned to other special operations units as their skill sets are needed.
I take exception to the history listed above.In 1919,following WW1,HoChiMinh wrote to Secy/State Robt.Lansing asking theUS to support VN freedom from France.He was ignored.After France's defeat by Nazis and Japan leading intoWW2,HCM and the VietMinh fought alongside allies against Japan.After WW2,VN declared its freedom from France and asked US support for a democratic gov't.in VN.Truman chose to support French colonial aggression instead,pushing VN to accept Soviet aid in its War for Freedom.
Funny thing is, America lost the war and yet surprise, Communism did not spread to California. You dont suppose that the CIA secret reports, kept hidden from the American people until they were leaked by Daniel Ellsberg (the so-called Pentagon Papers) were right all along, do you? That Vietnam was no threat to American interests?
A pointless and stupid war and war crime whose real war aim was American domination in the region--S Vietnam was a US puppet state threatened by a popular liberation
@tallwildcat22 take the time to ask some hard questions about America. The Vietnam War was a classic. I was just asking how you think it happened that despite the fact that the CIA told the President(Johnson)that Vietnam was no threat to US interests he kept that secret and prosecuted the war which killed at least one person I knew. That was the conspiracy. Just like Iraq, see? Government lies to you and then does bad things with your tax dollars. Look up daniel Ellesberg on YT
Jolly Greens were the life savers for many a downed airman. Quite a few grunts were glad to see them as well. Carried a lot of firepower when needed, at least the ones on the latter part of the war. Saw one come into Pleiku AB in late 71 or maybe early 72 shot full of holes, not a hand span without a hole, copilot only one shot. He took a round in the knee.
