VOICES OF HISTORY PRESENTS - Sgt. Mike Marsh 173rd Airborne Brigade, 503rd Airborne Infantry Vietnam

[@davepenn9181]

Quote of the month: "They weren't fearless, but they were brave." Amen. Fear is an instinctive response to danger. Bravery is what you do next.

[@VoicesofHistory]

Great quote Dave. Thank you for sharing. So very true. I find it amazing that most of these combat Veterans I've talk to say there's no fear in combat. It is only after the combat that the fear sets in.

[@kennethprice5628]

Welcome home brother, you served with honor...72 yo Navy Veteran

[@eddiemasterson3863]

[@VoicesofHistory]

Well said Chet. A great story.

[@phillamoore157]

This interview was outstanding, Larry. So much time has passed that some of these guys are so old they’re having health issues, memory issues, etc…. This man is incredibly well-spoken. That story about that medic was heartbreaking (Gary Ralph Schwellenback: Distinguished Service Cross).

[@VoicesofHistory]

Thanks Phil.

[@MrFrankturbo1]

Larry a really great interview by a great hero-vet !

[@VoicesofHistory]

Mike's story has been in my archives almost 20 years. It was an honor to share this with my KZbin family.

These interviews are going to be a brilliant gift for future generations. Let them not forget what their predecessors went through, regardless of their views on the morality of the wars.

[@VoicesofHistory]

I agree, thank you for your comment

[@wayneedwards5158]

Well said Sgt.! Thank you for your service. Welcome Home! 🇺🇸

[@Kylemathews1]

I loved his facial expression at the end when he Saluted. You can see how proud he is, and the little smile creep on his face.

[@VoicesofHistory]

Thank you Kyle.

[@kennethkeefer9080]

[@VoicesofHistory]

Thank you kindly.

[@pm7579]

Great interview once again Larry, thank you and your guest.

[@VoicesofHistory]

Thanks for listening. I hope you are subscribed to my channel.

[@cadwang_621]

Great interview. Thank you for that. As a vet myself. I cant help but think of what freedom is as well. Have we not all been granted free will and freedom at birth by our creator? We are the beneficiaries of this place. Only does man draw the line of what freedom means and we have lost the true meaning.

[@VoicesofHistory]

Great comment. Thank you.

[@jimmymarsh2489]

Thank you for your service, Mr. Marsh and welcome home soldier

[@VoicesofHistory]

Jimmy Marsh meet Mike Marsh.

[@jimmymarsh2489]

@VoicesofHistory first thing came to mind was, I wonder how I'm kin to this guy. I know Mike said he trained at Fort Bragg N.C. and I live about 25 miles below Fort Bragg called Moore County. There are a lot of Marsh in this County, and I'm kin to most. My dads folks came from Surrey County up around the mountains. My uncle, Larry Marsh, served in Vietnam around 1969 or 1970 - 70 or 1971, I can't remember. Mike had a great story, and I really enjoyed it. He seems like a great guy in general. I hope that if we are kin I get to know him. Thanks for your videos

[@Billy-pc6lt]

God bless you and your family sir. Thank you for your service.

[@T.McGarry]

Glad to hear that mail addressed to soldiers at the front got there. After my cousin was KIA in '66, I wrote to those heroes. I found a high school ring at the beach, and my dad tracked down the owner, who's family sent it to their son. He was in the Cav, sent me $5, and a nice letter. He was in combat, looking forward to getting home. Always wondered if he made it.

[@VoicesofHistory]

This is a great story.

[@danmurphy4472]

[@VoicesofHistory]

Glad you enjoy my channel David. Please feel free to share it.

[@charlesbosse9669]

Hi Larry. Thanks for another one of our veterans interviews. Can you imagine what kind of stamina it takes to be a cimbat veteran in Vietnam,or any war. Carrying all your survival gear weapons and ammo through the jungle? Ev2n in my younger years,ud be ha4d oressed to do what these men did,and i had a very physical job. I was a tree trimmer,climbing trimmibg and removing trees. As strong as I was,I don't know if i could do what these guys did. God bless you all. Thank you Mr. Marsh for my freedom.

[@VoicesofHistory]

Blessings Charles. Great comment.

[@christalbot2697]

I was born 1968 I'm from the UK but I'm drawn to these stories

[@VoicesofHistory]

Thanks Chris. Good to have you here.

[@ronaldclark8187]

Thanks Mike!

[@JulezWinnfield]

I had a cousin who also served in the 82nd Abn Div and then in Vietnam with the 173rd Abn Bde.

[@johnscott5662]

Terrific interview.

[@VoicesofHistory]

Thank you John.

[@deannatrendel5296]

Will never know but God sure does and was with you then as today thank you for your service ❤the herd❤ the men who paid the ultimate price

[@gregbiancone7422]

Hey Larry. Interesting to hear you talk about Fr. Monsignor Bradley of Long Branch. I recall many happy times going to mass at St. Michaels Church in Long Branch during my summer vacations. He got you in and out of church in about 30 minutes so we liked that. Lol Seemed he was super patriotic. So much so that instead of hymns at the end of the service he had us sing 'God bless America'. I would be interested to hear how you know him. Is there an interview that you did? In any case I really enjoy your interviews. Thanks and God Bless.

[@gregbiancone7422]

😂Found them ! Wow. Just wow. I had no idea!

[@VoicesofHistory]

Greg nice hearing from you. Of all the interviews I've done in the past 21 years Monsignor's is at the top of the list. I was the first person he told his Iwo Jima story to in 2005 before he passed away. We befriended each other and the rest is history. I have two interviews with him on this channel what you may have already watched. I also have a film which Catholic Television and EWTN air called, "Father Bradley Remembered - A Journey of Faith." He is one of my heroes of the faith. Feel free to reach out to me and we can share more about Monsignor. I also have his last Ash Wednesday mass on video which I taped in 2005.

[@jimd8008]

No one will forget Hanoi J

[@PT5-Shorts]

Do you still interview veterans?

[@VoicesofHistory]

Yes. You can reach me through my website: larrycappetto.com

[@albertmarsh1796]

I am a Navy Vietnam veteran 1966 6768 I'm from South Dakota I just wonder if Mike Marsh could be a shirt tail relative

[@VoicesofHistory]

Possibly...

[@laurenced2916]

If you think the 173rd Airborne was a great unit you should read the book Blood On The Risers by John Leppelman

[@scottspencer1914]

He resembles robert denero

[@jonwinship9099]

He also looks like Robert De Niro.

[@VoicesofHistory]

He does...WWII Veteran Frank Caflisch really looks like an old Clint Eastwood.

[@VoicesofHistory]

Yes.

[@deannatrendel5296]

The generation from WW2 and Vietnam will never be again we are better because of them we are in there debt forever will never see that strength ever again they just don't make men like that anymore

[@SV-DEDICATED]

Airborne.
