    I served in Vietnam in 1965 and in 1971. I was in the Air Force . The first time I was flying all around the country. The second time was in 7th Air Force. I am still bitter about the way we were treated when we returned. And bitter about Lyndon Johnson who sent thousands to young men to their deaths. to satisfy his ego and political ambitions. My best friend was shot down in 1964 . He was taken prisoner then killed. I cry for him

    they died for Bankers who only serve their own fiendish economic interests ... we could do with a few real heros right now but they do not exist in this sick twisted mind controlled world. there is a genocide ongoing and yet no HEROS ARE VISIBLE and the majority of people who are being regarded as cannon fodder by the wanna be elites act just like they deserve the title sadly.

Feelings and emotions that you didn't know where there suddenly bubble up and then you're left with not knowing how to feel. I am thankful Bob March for posting this and giving me the opportunity to see this glimpse of him, even if it wasn't in the best time of his life.

    This film contains tons of historical valuable information of Vietnam War. However, time flies by quicker than we ever expected but men who fought and served the war during the harsh period of American history never die just like General Douglas MacArthur said old soldiers never die; they just fade away. That's why you must be proud of yourself for sacrificing so much time and your soul.

I was taken aback as it had taken almost 25 years for someone to recognize my service. Of course, I should say that I came from a small rural area and there we Vietnam veterans were recognized the day we got back.

I was treated great by the people at the hotel I stayed in."We remember what your country men did for us". Any place I went I showed them a message written in Dutch on the hotel's business card.Dont know what it said but it was like having the key to the city. Had a wonderful time.

    This was a senseless war that the U.S. should have never been in. My ex-brother-in-law had P.T.S.D. after he got back from Vietnam. He told me horror (WAR for you 'grunts') stories that he had experienced when he was in Vietnam. I also heard stories from former Vietnamese military guys who became my co-workers. I see their patches similar to the patch at Fort Hood, Texas. Were these Army guys from there? If war was fought with a game of chess, the world will be a better place to live in. I like how you posted the names of the people who served. They deserved to be known to others, for their honor and bravery. I am reminded of my father, who barely survived the Bataan death march in the Philippines during W.W.2. My father is still alive, living in the Philippines. He's 98 as of this year, 2022. And my civilian uncle, after somehow was released from the Japanese prison camp, enlisted in the U.S. Army, got sent to Germany to fight the Germans, then came home with a German wife!

    Looks like I must have been around 10 when it ended. Watching this, seeing all the faces and the ones KIA makes me sad all the lost futures for them and the civilians killed. It makes me appreciate what Soldiers go through and then they get discarded by their various governments when they are done/discharged. I just wish the politicians and folk at the top along with the weapon designers and owners of the companies that make them be put in the front line first.

    This was a few years before my arrival (1969) I glad to see that this is about my company I was in although it was a short three months for me.I was wounded going into my third month so I did not get to spend my full year over there but it was a long three months.I recently attended my second reunion in Las Vegas and was glad to see some of my comrades I served with but also sad at the same time because we are all getting on in years and passing on.

    Interesting video showing actual timeline of a company’s movement through Vietnam war. It sad to see these young guys sacrificing so much for war that we had no business fighting. They still have not been justly compensated or recognized for they and their families sacrificed. To make matters worse the ones who did make it back with wounds had the worst medical system in the country treating them! Sadly, the VA Hospitals aren’t much better today than they were then,
