@rickinrocci Lastly, thank you for what you gave to our nation. The current attempts by the army to chip away at our vets compensation is absolutely vomitous; I can't understand why these people aren't kicked right out of their uniforms for neglecting the sacrifices people have made.

@rickinrocci Also, consolidation of power would be tested and pried at by the pathet lao and other orgs well funded by the PRC/Russia.

@rickinrocci You and everyone else who say that the war was lost to public opinion seem to forget that all our gens and even Kissinger mentioned the projected failure of an absolute military victory. To consolidate power would have required absolute attrition with a huge human cost on both sides and an even larger expenditure of resources due to the Arab oil embargo which broke out. We'd also need to stabilize the South Vietnamese gov't, something we could not do even before major military ops.

OH YEAH BAD NEWS THE BEST ONE IN VIETNAM WAR WOOOOHOOO!

My facts are very correct. But don't take my word for it- read your history. The Americans never lost a single battle of any consequence. The Tet Offensive was a major military defeat for the Viet Cong. Again, don't take my word for it- read your history and look at the facts. We weren't "booted out" of Vietnam- where did you get that idea? American public opinion and politics forced us to leave. That's the war we lost- the support of the American people. Again, read your history!

@RickIncrocci I don't quite thinks your facts are correct. However, this I know Viet Nam like any other country the yanks have entered to "aid" the people usually don't see the yanks leave. Thanks goodness they were booted out of there othervise they would still be in a bigger mess than they are in now.
Let's face it when the yanks come to help they have no, no intention of leaving.
