Viet Cong and the NVA were also fighting an invisible enemy. It was hard for them to get close enough to the Americans to see them in most due to massive napalm and other hellfire raining down on their heads.

The film was done in Feb. March. Our unit down in April, and a went to HQ, and became a truck driver. 2 weeks later I received orders to go 82 Airborne, DMZ, but my MOS changed. Have you filed for Agent Orange thru your VSO? I just received 100% disability. Check you benefits

One must remember that those tough Marines were fighting with whatever the Army was finished with or throwing away. Mostly they were just badass green machines getting some.

Thank you for this incredible film. It brings back many memories of our American fighting sons and daughters. Always a shout out to the 25th ID from a former Marine Kaneohe MCAS Oahu Hawaii! I've seen you in action and was nothing but impressed.

I think this is a Training Film! The Hedgerows were an enormous surprise, and it cost a lot of lives before they learned how to fight them. New Divisions were trained before being sent in!

At about 12 min in, i saw two colored men folding a Georgia Confederate flag. Now that's heritage. Not hate. Thank you all who served in Vietnam and welcome home

Looks like a live fire exercise with outdated machine guns, not actual combat…..

It would be nice to know the context, but I'm assuming US paratroopers were captured, maybe tortured for information and then executed and quickly buried to hide the war crime.

My dad was in 29th infantry division. He was wounded on June 17 as a forward observer for 110 field artillery and was embedded with 116. He said hedgerow fighting was worse than storming the beach. Psychologically it was almost unbearable.

9:31 I'm guessing he's an officer or NCO but nobody has insignia that would help the enemy (?) . Boy does he look worn out and sapped of any joy . Misery .
