[@cuongle7990]

Well they still bombed plenty of schools and hospitals. By "accident" of course, the same thing happening in Afghanistan and Syria today. Edit: And while the ground attack aircrafts performed their surgical strike most B52 and other heavy aircraft like the F-111 performed carpet bombing of entire urban population centers with napalm and conventional bombs. Most productions in Northern Vietnam were moved to the mountains by then. So the bombing ended up not affecting the industries much just hitting civilian targets killing hundreds of thousand in the process.

[@bigmeme8464]

Lol

[@davidthorp01]

Jana Dar-Ali - Credit Valley PS (1653) Market Garden was British lead, as Montgomery was the main planner for the operation and the brunt of the forces allocated for the ground convoy were British. The 101st and 82nd were our additions to the operation, as there were 3 main bridges to be taken, and they wanted some American involvement for PR reasons and because they knew we’d send our best. Neptune was an operation in Italy I think, which involved the 82nd airborne. Barbarossa was German and I think that was either associated with germanic mythology or history, i’m not sure which, which has little to do with OP’s comment which was joking about British operation names lacking a bit of flair as compared to US operation names. Which granted, the brits always snipe back something about style and unassuming names to throw people off of spying on em.

LMFAO the war was DOOMED from the beginning. South Vietnam could only survive if it had American ground troops and aid. The gov't in the south was extremely unpopular and incompetent and those traits trickled down on the ARVN.

[@DCS_World_Japan]

My dad fired the M-60 from a Huey and survived crashing behind enemy lines, thank you Lord. He told me he never killed anyone, but he did tell me that if it weren’t for the civilian restrictions, we could have won the war. “And I did what I had to do to win, but somebody wouldn’t let us win.”

My grandpa and grandma were in the middle of the war. They escaped on a boat and almost starved on a boat with other escapees. They got rescued bu either a russian or german boat. He also said a bomb hit nearly right next to his house.

Indeed

Thanks you the comment Com

[@com.phantom342]

We have the same favorite fighter aircraft during the Vietnam war.

[@firepower7017]

I wouldn't call it "good". Rather it was mediocre. The AIM-7 was literally experimental and trust me missiles in the early days for fighters stunk. However it's ground attack role is phenomenal.
