charlie daniels band - still in saigon

dedicated to my brother who was or should i say is a marine, he was a gunner on a helicopter. He joined the marines right before he was to be drafted into the army. not only was he spit upon and called names when he returned from Vietnam, he was indeed still in saigon for several months....perhaps still is idk..i just remember how sick he was and how i couldn't go into the room to wake him, had to call his name from outside the door. he returned from the jungle with mono and a bad case of jaudice..he served his country well and they betrayed him upon his arrival home..i pray we as a country may not agree with invasions, war, or whatever the government chooses to call it, but we will never again treat those who give up their freedom and lives the way we did the veterans of Vietnam..hate the war, not the warior...video is from appocalypse now,real footage of the tet offensive in vietnam,bad company 2,call of duty black ops and pink floyd's the wall :) hope you enjoy the tunes...

Much respect to your brother man, he did what few were willing to do. Semper Fi. Just remember he is a man truly deserving of respect for he fought one of the worse wars willing not forced.

@tenderbrat i just wish we were closer ; ; he left when i was 8, so we really didn't get to know each other like alot of brothers and sisters do, but i do remember him having my back when the boys would pick on me lol...he is a great man, a little broken from this war i think like alot of those who returned were ; ; but he is a very honorable, courageous man and i am so very proud to call him my brother :)

@rockpunkmetal100 Does your daddy know his 7-year-old posts here? I already told you I disagreed with the Vietnam and Iraq Wars. What part of "disagreed with" did your 7-year-old brain not understand? But I also disagree with chickenshits like you who go to other countries to avoid serving and then return when the war ends. Have the balls to stand up for what you believe in. But since you have no balls, I'm talking to the wrong "guy" (and I use that term very loosely), aren't I?

[childofthemarshalsea]

@rockpunkmetal100 ...prison or even getting killed) who were brave enough to stand up for what they believed. Those chickenshit cowards only went to Canada to save their sorry asses so why are you defending them? That M16 you carried didn't make you a man. You probably spent alot of time posing with it in front of a mirror, didn't you, toy soldier?

[childofthemarshalsea]

@rockpunkmetal100 1st off, you write like a 7 year-old. Where did you go to school? South Park? 2nd, I disagreed with the Vietnam War also and the Iraq War and the philosophies that prompted them. And yes, I do give a damn. I am a patriot, not a nationalist and yes, I know the difference. The point here is those cowards who went to Canada only cared about themselves, not stopping the war. It was the people who were protesting on campuses and in the streets (IOW, who were willing to risk going...
