They made me remember my father doing development and prints in our apartment about 40 years ago, using rhe camera I have now. The camera is very heavy. I found my father bought this Pentax as soon as this model was released. Thus, this is the Japanese K-1000se.

Grew up on this music in the 70’s. Still love it. When I was 7 - 10 I had a friend named Brian who was a Green Beret. He’d go away for long stretches but always had interesting stories to tell when he came back. He befriended our little group and told us to stay out of the Army when we grew up. I ended up in the Navy in the 80’s instead.

[@MarieliseLegrand]

cher dennis je vous écris de France et je n'ai qu'une chose à vous dire : God bless you

[@dennispagan7078]

@MarieliseLegrand thank you, but I can't read French ,I think it's French,

[@longbrigadier]

Yes it IS french !

[@kellyrepp1746]

The music and feel of the song and the era may have been a little naive, but can you feel the difference in the messaging? The era was filled with positivity and hope, whereas the current is filled with hopelessness and anger. Which works better? It's not being filled with nostalgia, but I long for the spirit of 1967.

[@simondunning9682]

Nailed it. Better off naive and optomistic or realistic and pessamistic? Life.

[@RexRoberts-hk3wj]

While enjoying cool jams let’s not forget freedom comes at a high cost from the blood of patriots.

[@haroldhartsock2120]

We went to Nam to restore freedom and democracy. It didn`t happen, we were booted out like running dog and cursed at home.Some elite got very rich though.

[@simondunning9682]

Agreed. I was a kid at the time so I'm a tourist but I reflect when I hear the tracks.. and thats with admirtaion for survivors of the shit-storm it must have been.

[@Aldoray-16]

We were just kids, we were drafted, we went, we saw the horror, we lived though the horror The indescribable horror still lives in all of us. To all of my colleagues along the DMZ in 68 who also had to face elusive Charlie: Semper-Fi

Good luck to you and mates

[@GaryH-pw9cm]

Yeah I was there July 69 to July 71. It was hot, humid and depressing. But the music was great.

The proud son of a Hippy Vietnam Vet born with Autism, Scoleosis ,Shoermans disease and a whole host of nualigacal problems caused by Angent Orange exposure. He went before his draft came up, served 13 months and 1 day, changed in a airport bathroom and threw his unifom in the trash can. I love you dad and welcome home. Thank you for your service. I wasn't always able to say that but it gets easier in my old age. Especpicaly after my mother passed.

[@dogisluvdogluvs8572]

This music was never ever heard in Vietnam. Only had armed forces radio government propaganda never played any rock music in Vietnam. We were isolated in the military in 60s no tv newspapers no radio. We had no internet or phones you good see the news or hear music. I didnt hear these songs until years after i got out. My small high school lost four guys 68 to 70 this just before i got sent in 71. When we got back got screwed over by the people, va and government. You could do anything to us and nobody would step up. Not even McCain he didn't help us.

[@andyotto2572]

So sorry, thank you for serving. I graduated in 75 si I missed it. I dated one gal with 3 sisters. Her father was the last to carry on the family name as her only brother joined the Marines and was killed over there. Another gal I dated her father was shot down over Laos in Dec 68. They spoke to him on the ground and recovered his co piolet but he was listed POW/MIA and was never returned. That seems to have been the fate of all US soldiers that went across the fence into Laos. I don't believe any ever were returned. The Vietnamese called the French POWS pearls of War and kept them as slaves long after the war.

[@stephencrane811]

The PX didn’t sell these albums? I know they could be had out on the economy; and mamasan had no problem getting them for her club

[@DanBaker108]

I didn’t know that. Thank you for telling us.

[@Rogue-7.62]

Depends on who you were with and were you were. I know for a fact we had it there. We had personal devices you know, not like today, but we did. Some AirCav units had speakers that played music like this on loud speaker's just to mess with the gooks on approach. That's where the "Apocalypse Now" movie producers got the idea for that movie. Some had old Teac brand Real to Real players installed to play the music.

[@PaulDrabik-df5kw]

So sorry you and the other vets had to go through that, we're not all haters, thank you for your service and many sacrifices

[@mrmohod]

I am addressing you as a veteran of the Homeland War from Croatia, at the same time a volunteer and war invalid, I want to say that we are Croatian freedom fighters from the great Serbian aggression that attacked us in alliance with the Yugoslav People's Army, which until then was at the same time the army of all of the people of Yugoslavia, we could no longer reconcile with it and we needed a new image, and that image was you, the American fighters against communist imperialist evil, and thank you for that image, for your selfless sacrifice and for the effort you made invested in preventing communism from spreading even further

[@MrSalvadorFuentes]

Love this music even tho I’m from Yugoslavia and me parents and grandparents were sending about 5% of their monthly income to support our brothers fighting in Vietkong. 🇻🇳🇻🇳🇻🇳 General Giap was in top 10 best generals in 20th Century.
