The Saddest Day: 30 April 1975 (The Fall of Saigon)

lmao bruce lee with gun 4:17 wat happen 2 jet kune do

hantin,
You are correct, Americans are bad and the USA is a terrible place. Stay in Vietnam and do not come to the USA.

Hantin..., that may look good coming from party headquarters in Hanoi, but no one else believes you. All the best in the new year.

The US could have won the war by nuking Hanoi. Unfortunately we would have killed all our POW's held by NVN and pissed off all the neighbors. That's kind of hyperbole, I know..we'd never have done it, but every time we stepped up the bombing Hanoi decided to consider peace overtures.

one of the reasons why america lost the war is because everytime they took a piece of land or win a battle they up and go back to base this was a fustration on the US troops. this was said by a US solider in a documentary i so. and unfortunaly its happening again in afganistan.

I remember seeing these images on TV when I was a kid(9 years old), but I was too young to understand them. But as I got older and read about it more, it gave me an entirely different perspective. From there, it became frightening to watch almost an entire city erupt into complete panic and chaos as the defenses around and near the city crumpled and the N.V.A. made their way into Saigon almost unchallenged. I guess you can't really blame them since they were unaware of their fate.

And people should not see and talk the way American view things about Vietnam. It was not the Fall of Saigon. It was the happiest moment in the history of VN. It was unification. It was the day the Vietnamese was strong enough to kick out the worst foreign enemy to affirm its unity & territorial integrity.

The US could never win the war since it was too long & costly to continue. And the only will and wish of the Vietnamese from all walks of life at that time was to unite. Anyone who stood on the way of unification should have been defeated.

J888HNT (half nackered twit?) Total horseshit coming from a 27 year old . I must be one of those disturbed soldiers. (although I was in the Navy) Yeah, the war was misguided and in many ways a ratfuck, but unjust...to whom? I am proud to say I am a vet..and given that we saved your British ass in WW2, perhaps we averted a genocide that might have prevented you from even being born. Give my regards to Osama. PS: Good or bad, at least we have a foreign policy.
