I worked as a nurse with mainly WWII and Korean War soldiers, but a few Vietnam vets were just coming in to long term care. One thing that will never leave me are the stories that they told me and the fact that they *always* go back to war, as their bodies and minds begin leaving. I literally had a patient dying a very slow death from cancer. He looked at me one morning and said, "i can't go on patrol today". I told him "at ease and you're relieved of duty". He was gone within an hour. Men relived specific battles. Women relived having babies. Fascinating and heartbreaking.

One of my dad's pals had audio tapes... from their front line position, on day 3 of a lull... so it starts out with the sounds of card games and guitar playing, until the attack begins, replaced by the sounds of VC shelling and GI's yelling. He told .me it was almost a relief, after not getting hit for such uncharacteristically long periods, when they were accustomed to daily attacks... and made specific mention of the moment when the sound of the MINI-GUN... comes into play.

Perhaps the only guy ever to utter~ “I’ve got some real funny stories from the burn unit’. Bob Martin is an Honest to God Role Model for the modern man. When you think you can’t handle life’s struggles, watch this and note his attitude. He has a great attitude because he’s endured everything and realizes it doesn’t mean shit. He was twisted, torn up, burned up and abandoned. Enduring is the thing and emerging to life again. It’s what it’s all about. Thanks for the video and thanks Bob Martin for your exemplary example.

You can plainly see the stare as he momentarily pauses. He is definitely back there in those moments. I feel that it is very hard for him to tell but he’s found a way to suppress everything enough to finally open up. I haven’t found that way yet as I assume you haven’t either. I feel that talking about it IS the way. But we need to find the right person to talk about it with. And that’s the hard part.

Update: The book Bob Martin mentioned has unfortunately not been published yet. Once it's available, I will post an update and link with purchase details. Bob's Silver Star citation reads: "For gallantry in action: Private Martin distinguished himself by exceptionally valorous action on 12 October, 1965, while serving as a member of an airborne cavalry point squad in a military operation in Binh Dinh Province, Republic of Vietnam. The majority of men in the point squad, which was moving into an attack along a creek bed, were wounded by a substantial volume of fire from a Viet Cong .50 caliber machine gun position and several other automatic weapons. With complete disregard for his own personal safety, Private Martin stayed with the wounded and administered first aid. He was constantly within rifle range of the hostile positions and exposed to their fire. When Private Martin became cut off from the rest of the platoon, he provided protective fire for the wounded until he ran out of ammunition. He then covered the injured men with his own body and was able to care for and protect his fellow squad members until help could reach them. The courageous and unselfish actions of Private Martin were in keeping with the highest traditions of the military service and reflect great credit upon himself, his unit, and the United States Army."

My neighbour about ten years older than myself was in the Mike Force in Vietnam, his nose was disfigured and he had shrapnel still in his forearm, and like Mr Martin would get injured and re enlist multiple times when i asked him why after getting shot and cheating death why would he go back he told me he missed the adreneline rush of the bullets whizzing by his head and cheating death. After his third tour and being injured again they would not allow him to re enlist and sent him home. For years and he drank heavily and did drugs in his words to try and re capture the high of combat and the adreniline rush of being shot at as he described it . He was sober by the time i met him he told me a few things about his time in Vietnam but never really opened up and i didnt press him. I had a good friend i grew up with who was in The Army special forces active duty and he came to visit when i he was on leave, i introduced him to my neighbour, my neighbour then went and got his medals and record of service and those two talked for hours and these are things he never shared with me. Eventually my neighbour moved out to California and he volunteered to undergo deep psychological testing as it applied to PTSD at one of the big universities in California the program lasted 2 months and provided much needed information about PTSD . I lost track of him as the years passed and found out one day he had died. Rest in peace Richard Paland i valued our friendship and thank you for your service

Mike force was some bad ass guys. I have read tons of Vietnam war books written by vets . Mike force was very interesting! They used Montagnard vietnamese to patrol deep in the enemy territory and we most of the time out there on their own beside air support. One story after a brief firefight the NVA lined up to charge them and soon as they go up to charge an A1 dropped napalm down the line of the charging NVA and burnt alive 20-30 men right in front of the Mike force . Brutal!

After 28 years as a Cop in NY, I found out that a lot of the guys whom I worked with for all these years, were also Vietnam Vets, all those years with all of us keeping this secret to ourselves, a secret,it was just something that we never talked about. By then we were joining the Vietnam Veterans of America and after a few meetings I was surprised to see so many guys I worked with all those years that were brother vets that I never knew about. What a damn waste!!!

His description of the PTSD sleepwalking was exactly what happened to a neighbor of mine named John when he returned home from Vietnam. I was around the age of 12 or 13, and this guy was a friend of my older brother. Out in the field behind his family home yelling about Charlie everywhere. Anyone who attempted to wake him was in danger. Eventually a police officer experienced this, and the arrest shook John into getting help. He got counseling, quit drinking and returned to being the guy I remembered. A big thank you to all veterans for serving and fighting for these United States of America.

Vietnam was called "Spelly's war" after Cardinal Spellman of New York City, a notorious homosexual when it was still illegal. When the French were in Vietnam it was a Vatican war, and when the French pulled-out and the USA was used instead, it was still a Vatican war.

I’ve had that moment near death myself and it stuck me when Bob talked about his. Just memories flooding back is all. I never had a divine moment I just remember having a definite choice. I remember thinking when presented with this that there was no choice here. Shortly after I heard the EMTs in the ambulance talking about having to take me to another hospital that was further as they kept finding new things wrong with me. The guy over me said something like “he might now make it that far.” I told him with more determination than I’ve ever had in my life “dying is not something that I do.” Then I yelled up to the driver to “step on it!” Then I went back to the falling sensation that I had been in and out of. I don’t know what it is about me that can’t help but talk shit when it hits the fan and I’m hurt badly but that’s what I do. When the doc was relocating my fingers that had been shoved straight back and on the back side of my hand he pulled but stopped when I yelled out. I asked why he stopped and he said I was yelling. I said “that’s part of the process now put your purse down and yank these fingers back out.” I had someone hold on to my arm so it would stay out and we got them back in place. My hand was like a grapefruit. Tore the palm open from the violence of it. It was a rough few days putting me back together. I had a broken spine with my T5 splayed and the spinal cord was out, collapsed lungs, cracked neck vertebra, broken leg, broken wrist, severe concussion(I sometimes type words backwards now and my memory sucks) bunch of broken ribs and those fingers but I’m still here and was back to work in 3 months and 9 days. Thanks Bob for sharing your story. I didn’t expect to connect with a part of it like I did but I’m glad for it.

She still remembers his mother screaming when she was notified. The draft ended the day I turned 18 ..June 1st 1973. When I started as an apprentice carpenter I had the good fortune of working with many Vets. All were great guys. All treated me great to me even if I didn’t serve. They were thankful I didn’t have to go over there. One who’s name was T Martin who survived on the gun boats told me that I really missed a hell of a time. I new what he meant.
