@kyletango How was it in there? Hot, shitty, annoying? Feared?

[kyletango]

I served with the 196th LIB Americal Div. in 1970-71. And Heinz 57 was what we were. We had 3 rangers in my platoon. I was trained as an Armour crewman. We had all types and MOS in our company.

198th came to Duc Pho, they did their time like everybody else and didn't have the opportunity like I did of coming into a big established Army division level unit. They were just a brigade bunched up with several other brigades in the Heinz 57 Americal Division; by early 68 the 3d 25th had changed to 3d 4th & linked up with the 198. I was there when they the 198th took some hard licks. They carried on the mission, so my respect is out there with the you guys of the 198th.

I trained with these guys at Ft. Hood, we did all the same village recon, and jungle stuff, they went to Nam we went to Chicago for the riots.

@223o I was talking about ww1,and you said no one could survive from the gas the germans used ect in ww2. You read my comments wrong,so i corrected you.

[223o]

@tatethompson1234 i said there were nazi's in WW1 when?

[tatethompson1234]

@223o Do you know how to read? I said my great grandfather in WWI. Yes the germans used gas canisters in ww1 in the field. He served at Vesle Sector,Toulon Sector,St Mihiell Offensive and was captured Oct 1st during Meuse Argonne Offensive, I have all his papers,medals,uniform,letters so before you call someone a liar you should learn how to read. 2nd of all their were no nazi's in ww1,and yes i know what the holocaust is,my grandmother came from Poland in 1940 here to the states.

@tatethompson1234 coming from someone who has 2 grandfathers in POW camps... if you get gassed by the Nazi's, your not coming out alive so stop bullshitting. also POW camps werent for people to get gassed, prisoners in there werent gassed, just worked to death. your thinking of concentration camps bud.

Ho chi Minh, Vietnam's communist founder, is a disguting TRAITOR and MURDERER. He was a member of the Third Communist International established in 1919 by Lenin. He gave up Paracel & Spratly archipelagos with large oil resources to Red China. He even ordered to murder his own mistress named Nong thi Xuan when she threatened to disclose her sexual relationship with him since that would destroy his image as a "Father" of Vietnam who "sacrifices" his whole life for Vietnam revolution.
