  • Our allies and friends and we abandoned them.

  • The reporters back then had massive balls to go down and do this, unarmed and unsupported.

  • President Thieu made a big mistake by ordering this strategic retreat in hope that the US will send help, but the US abandoned its ally.

  • US had no business being there in the first place.

  • @CantoOrigin This isn't a tactical retreat, it's a strategic rout.

  • IF YOU WEREN'T THERE THEN SHUT THE FUCK UP.

  • @Andreazor

    You should read some of their books recounting what happened. I've heard of at least two reporters who were with US soldiers who were under heavy attack and were actually given an M-16 and told to shoot, which they had to otherwise they would've been over-run.

  • @TheChuck624 I was responding to your "South Vietnam doing what they do best..." remark. Ever heard of a tactical retreat? You should know this as your very first American President, the one whom you all so idolize did nothing but retreat from red coats for many parts of the revolutionary war..."American's doing what they do best...retreating" Give the typical American one of the world's best education and freedom of speech and this is what you get. An uneducated moron.

  • @CantoOrigin Fuck you asshole, I did my time. 9 years worth in combat arms Army. Our medics never left anyone behind so shut you fucking mouth because you don't know shit about anything.

  • @TheChuck624 Troll, you sit in the comfort of your own house and have the nerve to criticize those who sacrificed their lives for others? You're Pathetic.
