  • Not any direct hits on DDG-8 but a boat load of hits by shrapnel, holes in the radar and life rafts and some stuck in the aluminum superstructure port and starboard.

  • Nice footage, but it doesn't show how intense it could get. That would have been a slow day at the office on Operation Sea Dragon. During one engagement, we took 200 near misses in under one hour.

  • The video was the tailend of the action, we too were on Sea Dragon opps and took over 300.

  • Sure, and if not Iraq, Saddam would rule the US. lol

  • Awesome footage. Glad our ships took no hits.

  • Strange; this was 19 Dec 1967 when they shot at these ships, and 19 Dec 1972 when the Goldsborough took a hit off N Vietnam. Coincidence I'm sure, but

  • 5/54" spitting rapid fire PAIN! DD943 Blandy

  • @CharlieDoan fuck you vietnamees fuck you and your country

  • @phillippibeard

    I want to see how this gun DAMAGE to enemies of just shoot to the empty beach or mountain without anythings!!! I am a Vietnamese !

  • I hate all the ENEMIES to drop bombs and ammo in my country!

  • Just an excuse to start WAR....! All Vietnamese knew that!

  • @deltadude61

    FOR SHOW

    never win in Vietnam without landing from Army

    OR USED antomic bombs to win like (JAPAN 1945) American smart but, Why don't they do LANDING AND ATTACK LIKE INCHEON 1950 IN KOREA??? Dirty history with big military in Vietnam and 1975 South Vietnam and American + allies LOST FOR VC! shame history! American need to clean up that Vietnamese communist shit. I can't stand to see they come to US and shake hand with the Presidents!!! USA shaked hand with enemy VC!
