[@kojack1129]

Dr Sorley is a great speaker able to really capture the essence of all the subjects he speaks about.

48:26 US army put a lot of info out over the radio, in the clear, so VC / NLF could hear it all.

[@havu-oj4qh]

Communist intelligence was located everywhere in the all of organs of US puppet government,from President palace to Army, Police,Congress , including the US embassy ! They didn't need info from radio!

[@mustbtrouble]

amazing youd have a generation of people go through the debacle of vietnam, then that same generation leads us into iraq & afghanistan repeating the same mistakes.

Only the truth will set our country free.

The talk starts haltingly at minute 18. Before that you get breath-taking details such as the monographs being published with spiral bindings. I may try to come back to listen more, but a bad beginning makes for a bad ending.

Douglas Moran spiral bindings last so much longer, but are easily damaged in tight spaces. Can’t wait for the first 18 minutes!

Poor audio, fuzzy video and it took forever to get to the pont. Do over.

32:41 , crossing the national borders in 1971 , to call Lam Son 719 a devastating blow against the enemy is just to repeat Nixons exaggeration of the success of Vietnamisation . Which leads into their comments on the role of advisors and how that role changed with the buildup and US forces took on the primary combat roles . A lesson lost to history it seems , given the surprise at the speed of the ANA collapse all these decades later .
