Robin Bartlett Interview | Echoes of the Vietnam War: Episode 48

[@dswiger]

I was "there", not in a direct combat situation, but in support of such. Everything he said is true & "rings a bell" in my consciousness. To this day, it is very hard to convey the feelings that come back to me. Some of them I have all the time, other's "just show up" Welcome home sir

Fascinating stories ROBIN. THANK YOU FOR YOUR SEVICE TO OUR COUNTRY.

[@gordo46]

I watch these stories the soldiers and as a Canadian in the same age group, I applaud each warfighter for their sacrifices. Many of us in Canada only heard it through filtered news and political rhetoric. Those of you who made it back and we're scared by the experience or who died you have my utmost respect and welcome home

This is one of the best interviews I’ve seen on this topic. I’m not a vet but also not a hugger and don’t say I love you. Just asked my daughter if I’m empathetic and she said no. Seems that I have some work to do. Robin Bartlett was clearly a great leader and I hope he realises that his recounting of his experiences is still having an impact on people. Welcome home Robin :-) Nice one and thank you.

It's so sad to not feel welcome in the place you thought you would be safe.

[@My2ndtimearound]

Welcome home Robin and thank you for defending democracy.

[@davidsvoboda6371]

USA wouldnt allow free elections in Vietnam as they knew Ho Chi Minh would win - so they fought against democracy - read some history

Any platoon commander who doesn't check in with troops life expectincy should be about 30 seconds.

Can’t find the book. What’s the name of it? Tried looking up on Amazon with the authors name but no dice.
