I saw the Kingston Trio on my way to Vietnam in 1969 and heard this song. Being young and stupid, the true impact of the lyrics went right over my head. Now, at 77 and watching the world slide into chaos and violence again, the inevitability of the words, "When will we ever learn?" is a poignant reminder that mankind can't seem to stop slaughtering each other.

Rich Weatherly....and "ALL" Veterans of The War in Vietnam......Thank You for your Service and God Bless You and Yours!! I'm 68. My draft card was 1- H (Holding). I didn't have to serve and I didn't want to go to war like probably most, if not all others.....but the flip side of THAT coin is, I didn't feel like I was "that" special, either, to get to stay home. Many school friends of mine....and other friends had to Serve in that RIDICULOUS war....only to come home to a CRUEL AND UNGRATEFUL NATION! My Cousin, Douglas Griffin (RIP, Doug!!), got killed in that War. I might not have passed the Physical Exam. Until I turned 35, I never saw the scale go over 119lbs. Skinny and even Hospitalized for Anemia at a young age. Getting a LOT of B-12 shots in my younger life. Once again, Rich......THANK YOU, SIR!!

Vietnam and the Mideast wars had rules of engagement forced on the military, that made these wars last longer so their buddies in the "Military Industrial Complex," could get richer supplying the wars. If you got fired on, you had to call for permission to fire and warning shot at them, before you could shoot back to kill them. President Eisenhower warned about when he was leaving office. He said. "Beware of The Military Industrial Complex." Ask anyone that was in Vietnam or the Mideast wars.

@@sandragruhle6288 The common reason stated for Vietnam was to protect South Vietnam from the NVA, and to halt communist forces in the North. It is generally considered that we lost the war. In actuality, you need to go back a few decades and look at the Japanese strategy during WW II, and how well "island hopping" worked for them. The war did serve to deny China the ability to seize Vietnam, which was very much their goal. This would have given them unrestricted access to the Paracel and Spratley Islands, making it a short jaunt to the Philippines. From there, follow the Japanese path to Hawaii. The underlying reasons for Korea were much the same. At that time, the Chinese lacked the ability to directly attack the US, but was quite capable of using the Japanese "one island at a time" approach. A Chinese presence in Hawaii would have given them the foothold needed to directly attack the US. What was found in contemporary news releases and school textbooks from that era to present do not really line up well with what is available to a bored sailor sitting in the library of a US Navy ship reading USN/DoD books about naval strategy. China is NOT our friend, and never has been. While the USSR/Russia has been the bogieman in the forefront, our military posture has been to reign in China as much or more than the Soviets/Russians over the past 75+ years. Speaking to Vietnam specifically, the Democrat-controlled US Government outright lied to us. The white House was quite aware that the whole Gulf of Tonkin affair was a combination of equipment issues and human error, and was NOT an attack by the NVA on US Naval Forces. While Johnson was sabre-rattling on the evening news, the USN was dispatching instructions for equipment upgrades and personnel training to prevent a similar mistake. The second major mistake with Vietnam was to simultaneously commit troops in-country AND set overly restrictive Rules of Engagement. We are all adults here, so I will be blunt. The sole purpose of the US (or any other) military is to kill people and blow shit up. That is what they are trained and equipped to do. What SHOULD have happened was to directly, immediately, and harshly stomp on any incursions by the NVA, China, and the Viet-Cong with all the force and means available...then go back to base or back to the ship. Instead, we opted to basically attempt to occupy an entire country, with an R.O.E. which prevented our even pasting the airbase where the planes which just bombed our troops were landing, just because it was 5 miles past an arbitrary line drawn by politicians in WA DC. Putting line troops on the ground in a situation which could have been handled primarily with Naval air assets and selective ground assaults cost the lives of thousands of troops and civilians on BOTH sides.

"If you miss the train I'm on".......... Eerie...... Hauntingly BEAUTIFUL line in "500 Miles"!! And when Mary Travers sings that line near the song's ending, my tears flow like flood waters. Also, "Cruel War"....."Blowing In The Wind". Her voice and emotional interpretation gave those "simplest" ballad songs POWER and EMOTION!

I'm 72 and I remember. I only bought a few LPs back then and I had all three PP&M albums. We lived in California and the 4 sisters next door took turns pounding out on a piano on their back porch the only song they each knew. Hang Down your Head Tom Dooley. I didn't think we would ever get that song out of our heads! It almost made us jealous of ole Tom hanging on a white oak tree. At least he had an ending. I'm glad they never learned the Man on the MTA, because you know that song doesn't end.

Kid at a boarding school in Menlo Park on the peninsula in the early 1960s. Me and my bud went to the Hungry I to catch the Kingston Trio. (Bob Shane and Nick Reynolds attended the same boarding schools and its associated junior college. Dave Guard attended Stanford.) A couple of years later, same friends, same venue, caught PP&M and fell in love with Mary Travers. God almighty was she gorgeous with her blonde hair and blue eyes! I am still in love with her memory.

@@mikebressler9041 agree with you wholeheartedly. Some of the comments here are pretty hilarious when it comes to the political spectrum. Most Americans don’t even know what communism is … they don’t know that it requires massive wealth to achieve it… they don’t know that there was never ever any real threat of communism in US history…that there will never ever be any communist or socialist threat on Uncle Sam’s ranch. The only real threat to America has always been fascism and…in fact that’s what the current crisis is all about. The only itsy bitsy tiny spec of socialism in right wing demagogic America can be found is the last convents and monasteries…if even that exists anymore where the clergy run things like a band of little Smurfs. The US is fast losing their grip on democracy as institutions are falling apart before our eyes. But this music makes up some of America’s best memories… a time gone by when folks were civil …could speak English and could actually write a sentence. The fear of the left is all made up … trumped up to keep felons , racists, religious nut jobs along with grifters ….in power. … forever. What a joke.

Ilove the PPM stuff, but there was something somagical about Mary's solo shows. It's a shame that her solo albums have not been reissued. I still miss this wonderful, warm, talented woman.
