[@thorinteague989]

​@@kittycat7028 There is so much wrong with your statement that I don't even know where to start. First of all you need to separate the people and the soldiers, none of whom wanted the war, from the politicians who executed the war for their own ambitious reasons. Trump came along over 50 years after nam, that's just idioitic. An deiner Aussage ist so viel falsch, dass ich gar nicht weiß, wo ich anfangen soll. Zuallererst müssen Sie das Volk und die Soldaten, von denen keiner den Krieg wollte, von den Politikern trennen, die den Krieg aus ihren eigenen ehrgeizigen Gründen geführt haben. Trump kam über 50 Jahre nach nam daher, das ist einfach idioitisch.

At the time, I was way too young to understand. But when I was a teenager, my Uncle Octave, who was in the US Air Force, told stories. As he was part of the transport unit who picked up the "dead" (bagged and tagged) - he would get really upset at the way the bodies were handled. They were just tossed like "proverbial garbage" on the planes. He would literally yell that "they were once alive. Human beings who were loved. Somebodies somebody". And he would ask that they would be a little more respectful. As my Uncle Octave told this story he would always have tears rolling down his face. My Uncle Octaves smoked like a chimney, drank like a fish and eventually died of cancer. God Bless Him. He had so much insight. And his pain was real enough for him to smoke and drink himself to death. God Bless the Soldiers, Then and Now. Because without them, we would not have a country, much less be the country we are. No matter how you feel about it.

This is a no shitter: I was a gunner on convoys, Iraq 05-07 and I was talking on the intercom bitching that when they make a movie about what we did (NPDB1) that the sound track would SUCK! Because the music at the time sucked. So I said that we all got to sing some kool shit so we can say that the music really happened. We all sang Wooly Bully driving down some crap 3rd world road with IED's, camels, man dresses in the back ground. But we didn't know the words and it was all "Wooly Bully"......and more Wooly Bullys.

Like a lot of guys sent to 'Nam, many had kids or kid sisters and Bros, They were little more than Target practice yet the U.S government had some crazy idea about sending, nonstop, the youth of the Country. Large numbers of draftees were sent from the Streets of New York, I know from what I saw myself in Tan Son Nhut and Danang.Our C-130's and KIWI Bristol Freighters took up Medical and food supplies from Changi,The American government had a pact with one of their Politicians (McNamara) to 'Clean Up the Streets of NY City and so hundreds of Afro Americans were shipped up there. All this and many sickening details of the 'war' including clearing Afro Americans from the Streets of NYC are written in a book titled 'NAM'. The Vietnam Experience.1988 by ORBUS Publishing Ltd. this is NOT a story book believe me, it is a blow by blow account of that dreadful action.The book was 1st published in London by the Octopus Publishing group Michelin House, 81 Fulham Road, London SW3 6RB. 1988. The Blow by Blow pages give the truth, it is certainly not a story book full of 'heroic' fights, rather it displays accurately the deviant policies dreamed up by U.S politicians and their ilk. I was around 27 years old those days and experienced in Jungle warfare from the days of Malaya's emergency actions 1949-1960. Vietnam was a totally different model of ultra mechanised war coupled with a relentless and non stop supply of trained and well armed hostile troops. (Unlike the ones I had experienced in Malaya where Bandits and armed Terrorists were the enemy and NO armour was utilised, it was almost ALL footbashing. Helicopters were almost non existent in my days.ANyone interested should try get a hold of this History Book, there's no 'light reading' in it just the truth. it is Packed with color foto's too'.NAM, The Vietnam Experience' 1965-75, if not available at your bookshops locally AMAZON will have copies.

@Edward - I hate to inform you but, your brother is probably not "mentally fine". I can assure you that he suffers from PTSD. Having been diagnosed with this condition over a decade ago, I wish there was someway to reach your brother and convince him to open up to a psychologist and/or psychiatrist experienced with treating veterans. So many advances have been made in the treatment of this condition that it is somewhat curable today if diagnosed and treated in time. As for me and my fellow vets who suffer from chronic PTSD, I'm thankful beyond my ability describe for the treatment I have received from the VA. I feel that I have given some of my life back.

I was in Vietnam in 1969 and for a while was stationed at a firebase named Wooly Bully in Kontum Province so this song has a special meaning for me-though likely different from most others.

Greetings from the Ohio Porters. 🇺🇸 I really enjoyed the pics and music! It was bittersweet…I have an uncle that was part of the body recovery team and have many friends who were in Vietnam. Some of them share their stories but some won’t talk about it at all! I know about some good and bad stories, but I also know that many of our returning troops weren’t treated well at all. THIS BREAKS MY HEART! Many gave it all, but some gave the ultimate sacrifice! I am one red blooded American that appreciates all the sacrifices and who thanks God for you and your families! I love seeing these pictures! 🥰🇺🇸

I was in high school when Vietnam ended. I enlisted in the Army in 1977 right after graduation. We had 13 drill sergeants in our basic training company, 2 were in Korea and Vietnam and 10 others were also in Vietnam, only 1 drill sergeant was not a combat veteran. I was so blessed and fortunate to have enlisted when I did because I got to serve with WWII, Korean and Vietnam veterans all at once. I feel I got an education from all these veterans from the wars mentioned that no college or university could have ever gave me. My grandfather and several great uncles were in WWII, cousins in Korea and an uncle and MANY friends in Vietnam. Once I started wearing the uniform and with time as I got to know these veterans, I considered it an honor that many of them trusted me and felt comfortable enough around me that they opened up and told me of what they had went through. Some of the stories from veterans of the three wars mentioned would make you cringe and raise the hair on the back of your neck. I did not have to read about the history of these wars because I had the honor and luxury of hearing about them from the men who were there, who seen it, who lived it, that is something I WILL ALWAYS treasure. I always had a high respect for veterans, partly because so many family members had served all the way back to the Revolutionary War, but after serving with these great men, my respect skyrocketed even more. Other than Almighty God who has the most respect, the American veteran has my next greatest respect. God bless ALL veterans, past, present and future.

I'm a Vietnam vet 68-69, I got home in the fall of 69. At the same time, one of my best friends got home in the same time frame. We went out one night for a couple beers and stopped at a local VFW. A couple WW2 vets came up to us and started giving us crap for being Nam vets. I told them where to stick it and informed them that any organization that would have them as members would never get my support. Since that time I have been asked several times to join the VFW and I still decline. I realize I should get over it but I still can't. We went through a lot from the protesters but I never expected it from vets.
