I remember you all. HS grad 1966. University 1976-1979 with returning Vietnam vets. I was divorced, 2 little girls, going back to college along with vets, much in common, lots of loss and haunting nightmares, but trying to pick ourselves up to go on. I remember holding your hand, touching your face, kissing your lips, loving you in a way others will never know. These years are etched in my memory along with your faces, your stories, sorrows that only lovers share. I pray for us all. Now 71 years old, but I can never thank you enough for sharing your lives with me and my girls (now I have 7 grandchildren too).We are fine. I pray you found your way in this world. I know it’s been a rough journey for our generation. You all are in my heart. XO

I was in country 67 & 68, Army. It's always there, but I moved on to honor my brothers that did not come home. Will never forget them. Thanks for listening when we came home, not many did.

This is really heart breaking how so many of America’s top men go and never come back.I was watching a clip based of 20 year old marine LCPL Garland “Buddy” Mann from Company B,1st Battalion,9th Marines. In 67’ when he was doing an interview on Nov 26th about the casualty rate,he explained it as friendly as he can as he seem to be the most positive.On Dec 6th he was wasted that day and left a wife and a baby girl at the time. Im only 15 and see war as it is,it’s an adventure but an adventure can lead to death :(

This tune is featured in the excellent film, Coming Home, about a paraplegic Vietnam War veteran played by Jon Voigt. Lyrics always put me in mind of a 1st lieutenant who was KIA in July 1968 at the age of 21 in Loc Ninh. RIP, Joe. 51 years this week. All these young faces -- they were mostly just a little older than I was, and they have haunted me my whole life.

Reminds me of the day my brothers in our Warbird died w/o ME! 09/16/1968-crashed and burned! Every year I’ve lost it on 9/16. Tried to get my pilot to take me, ( some reason I felt I needed to be with them)but he said that we’re coming back for you. Over an hour later, I saw the first Sgt. and CO coming out of flt-ops, walking towards me. First Sgt said that there was no way to break the news, so, your crew has died! My butt hit the ground and I wasn’t any good to anyone for a couple weeks. Also, my first tour, on the ground 2/34th Armor, 1st Inf Div, I have memories of the teen-agers, how some of them looked even younger when KIA (tears my soul), but my own tank crew survived, I was the only crewmember that had to be dusted off.

My grandpa served, and he showed me his uniform, original vinyl that he played like The Doors, The Beatles, etc, and this video makes me think about that. I’d like to visit him as soon as possible but he lives on the East Coast and I live in the West Coast, so not much luck there...but I will do it

My next door neighbor was a US army medic during Vietnam war in the late 1960s, he won't talk much about his experience there, Vietnam was the worst war this country ever fought, us forces had to pull out in 1975, this war was the low point in American history
