We Were Soldiers-Fortunate Son

[Xephon0930]

How many of you heard of this song before Tropic Thunder?

[fpsvincent142]

what movie is this?

[rugbymom75]

@fpsvincent142 we were soldiers with mel gibson

[101Themexicano]

@fpsvincent142 We Were soldiers

[BuskersBeat]

Do you completely misunderstand the nature of this song. One of the truly great anti-war songs of my generation. Anti-war, anti-militarism. This presentation is offensive and stupid.

[Urdalibertine]

I like the way the guy daintily steps off the helicopter at the beginning.

That takes either real balls or no brains.

Bad Company 2 VIETNAM

[MMAkid6]

@hayes4298 fuck black ops bfbc veitnam all day

[Anarchizer]

It was the scene with the cut off platoon?

[Dox482]

Anytime I see a chopper scene in a movie or game this song is always playing

[ImpulseProductionsPA]

It's funny. This song changes the mood of this entire scene.

[gymny2812]

you understand the battlefield Vietnam fierce how not? How many American soldiers dead and many wounded veterans and why the fine is the disease called Vietnam syndrome is not? This is actually a nightmare

[bondjoethree]

Man I am going to play some battlefield: Vietnam right now. Nice video :)

[Oblivionfan993]

EXACTLY! The United States had the ability to win the war. Our ROE from back at home prevented every facet of the Armed Forces from winning.

[HadesssLoakoonGroup]

" sweet home alabama" :)

[randy95023]

We "won" every battle yet we lost the war. We never figured out that the Vietnamese LIVED THERE and couldn't leave. We could still be there "winning" every battle except the black granite Vietnam War Memorial would be about 75 miles long...

I hated to "lose" too, but the truth is the U.S.A. could not have EVER won, it just took us about a decade to figure that out. I think our patriotic pride got in the way of our common sense. We Americans have a dire shortage of "common sense"...

[Lu24548]

way too much for me man, knowing this is real footage...omg

[SpyWizard2]

Love this song, when we pulled our troops out of vietnam we gave hell to the NVA with our airpower and the South viet army was winning the land war, but congress removed our airforces and all forces and they lost...

[beavertron82]

lost the war

[rootbeer4969]

The soldiers fought it well. The Democrats in Washington lost it when they refused to help the soldiers win it...

[janney1957]

Oh, please... The Democrats--all by themselves? Dig a little deeper...

[Aspartan3]

man that song just doesnt sound right without the sound of hueys in the back round

[2010025]

aney of you call me grandpaw and ill kick your ass

[TeamZissou88]

bull shit.

[Cameronm55]

[55jillhere]

I just seen this movie its realy good but sad aswell

[primobebelo]

Excellent song, i think both "Fortunate son" and "Hey Joe" are the main cultural symbols of this dramatic conflict.

[UjioSatashi]

actually, Fortunate Son wasn't released until 1969 in the CCR album "Willy & The Poor Boys", while The Battle of The La Drang Valley took place in November 1965. But hey, still goes good with the movie, lol =)
