Guess Who's Coming Home: Black Fighting Men Recorded Live In Vietnam (1972)

Long top LP originally released by Black Forum, a Motown Subsidiary.
Guess Who's Coming Home: Black Fighting Men Recorded Live in Vietnam is the first recorded history of black soldiers in any war. For two years, Wallace Terry traveled the length and breadth of Vietnam from 1967 to 1969 interviewing black soldiers-- infantry as well as officers--for Time magazine and for this recording. He found his story everywhere, from the battlefields of Hamburger Hill and the Ashau Valley to the black-only hootches in Da Nang. The Bloods rap about the issues of the day--racism in the military and back home in the "World", Lyndon Johnson, Richard Nixon, the Black Panthers, and Ho Chi Minh. In this recording, you will discover a war within a war, a double battleground between blacks and whites. The humor, intensity and anguish as the Bloods rap in Guess Who's Coming Home will make you laugh, it may make you angry, and it may make you cry as you share their world at war.
Special Thanks to Tracksteve, the original poster.

The Photo of the black combat soldier is a member of the US ARMY'S 9th Infantry division. It was given the assignment to patrol the Mekong Delta region of Vietnam. It was a joint operation with the US Navy, it was known as the Mobil Riverine force. The reason I know this, my Dad arrived in Vietnam in March of 1968 and was assigned to Co B 3rd BN 47th Infantry 9th Infantry division. The Mekong Delta was a maze of rivers canels, streams full of leeches snakes, mosquito's red ants etc...the mud was thick and deep, and there was no end to the rice paddies. I too am a proud veteran of the 9th Infantry division, I was assigned to HHC 2ND BN 39TH INFANTRY, FT Lewis Wa from March 1978 to August 1980. God Bless all those who served with the 9th Infantry division, known as the "Old Reliables"

Still oppressed to this day. It is a tragedy. RIP to all our fallen brothers. Everyone hates the black man because we have unlimited potential and talent in all aspects of life. Our history is deep and human history begins with us!

[@simonyip5978]

Decent black men are respected not hated by everyone else. The thuglife, gang members who are involved in drugs and gun crime and who don't care about their kids and cheat on their partners and hate police and hate all white and other non black people because they believe that they are hated and victimised and held back in life, those black men who expect free housing, education, food, money, and believe that their own issues and problems and failures and faults are not their fault and they expect others to deal with all of their problems, they are the black men who destroy their own neighbourhoods by letting their kids run wild, they own guns, sell drugs give their area a bad reputation. But they don't seem to realise that they have done it to themselves. White criminals, layabouts, freeloaders, irresponsible behaviour and violence is also hated by the average citizens, its about behavior/attitude/lifestyle/etc colour and race has nothing to do with it. So no, the hardworking, family oriented, married and employed in a well paid position because he took the time to train and gain vocational qualifications and skills is respected and admired. So you are wrong to say that all black men are hated, it's their ghetto nigga type who have no self respect and don't care about anything that people don't like (I think that most decent black people like them either).

[@anthonyrobinson6590]

Some powerful speaking! My father(Air Force Master Sgt) was stationed at DaNang '67-69, might have been longer. I wonder if he knew any of these guys. We didn't really have a relationship so I never got to hear any stories.
