Documents from the Vietnam Era to the Billy Joel song Goodnight Saigon.
This video is dedicated to the American Soldiers who gave the ulitmate sacrifice in the Vietnam War.

Due to past concerns I would also like to say... If you post anything hurtful to anyone else under my video, your comment will be removed. I will not tolerate any hate under my video. Also I would also like to say that this video is dedicated to the American Soldiers who gave the ulitmate sacrifice in the Vietnam War. This video documents the lives of American Soldiers in Vietnam and it is only fitting that it is dedicated to them. I am not discriminating against anyone here. I feel that the war was started under the best intentions yet ended up to be all wrong. American Soldiers came home and were treated as villians when in reality they were just doing their jobs. And I think all who did their job in Vietnam was a hero. However, I have the upmost sympathy for the Vietnamese citizens who had to endure years of chaos and death. And I really respect their courage and dedication to their beliefs, and that is why the USA lost in Vietnam. It wasn't all because of the Anti-War movement. There are Anti-War movements during all wars. Don't get me wrong the Vietnam Era Anti-War movement did effect the outcome, but it did not spell the definite end.
I lastly would like to say that I am a liberal person and a big supporter of peace, love, and tolerance. So I want to make it clear, that I can be against war, and still support the military.

  • @blondwiththewind You made me see your point with utmost clarity, therefore I shall bother you no more. It has been a pleasure to dialogue with you anyway.

  • @AnarchyInTheUK1947 OK...but I would like to reiterrate that my comment was a response to the discovery on this site that a person was making unethical postings and impersonating a US veteran. No politics involved with my comment. You are free to direct your political concerns at someone else...you'd probably get more traction. My comment was ONLY about the impersonation. Likewise...SOPA dialogue has no place in relation to my comment, either.

  • @blondwiththewind then let me explain: my reply was related to your expression "let the guys who were REALLY there tell THEIR story". I just tried underline that both your people and the Charlies "where REALLY there" and they most propably had different views about what was "THEIR story"; as this beautiful song also points out. I'm sorry if I was misunderstanded. Anyway, no need of translation from latin ... IN VINCULO VERITAS? (just look at SOPA law)

  • PEACE!!!! NO more war! It never brought us anything good!! Give us a world we can live in and a world that we want to pass on to next generations! Kim-Yung-Un, and also the president that runs Iran: Stop your idiotic thinking, you ignorant sons of b*tch*s!!

  • Amazing what the fear of Communism lead people to. And sad that it could of been avoided then young U.S soldiers that laid down there lives may still be alive.
