and i learned that Cronauer basically realized something was wrong with Robin Williams. long before the suicide. "he build a was so that nobody could get in and hurt the real robin"

I remember 1966 in the east side of Buffalo. I was just a lad, and I walked down E Ferry to go to school at St Matthew's. A banner was draped across a second story balcony, saying, Welcome Home Bob. Big red letters on a white back drop. I asked the lady who Bob was, as she was sweeping her drive. He is my boy and he is coming home next week. I happened by as they were taking down the banner the following Saturday. Bob you see not coming home, he had died. Just another day in Buffalo for me, but Vietnam had come to Buffalo that day. Bob was now my hero, not John Wayne anymore. I wish I had met Bob, I was looking for it. I saw his mom in church, as I was alter boy. She told me Bob had been one too. RIP Adrian, say hello to Bob for me.

Steve, back in 1968, while living in a Philadelphia, we hung a sign in front of our row house that said “WELCOME HOME DAD”, he was returning from Vietnam. An elderly gentleman approached us with a handful of small American flags and asked us to hang the flags with the sign. He told us that he had them to welcome home his son from Vietnam, who unfortunately was killed in action. We hung the flags with our sign. To this day remembering this story brings tears to my eyes and I am crying as I type this. Fortunately for us my father returned home safe!!

As a former morning DJ, I can say that his description of the early morning sign-on was disturbingly accurate. The part he left out however, was the preceding scenario, when the newsman was, more often than not, racing from the newsroom to the booth while the news theme was dying out...and that was every hour. The hardest part of a morning show was making it all sound casual.

An adverb and an adjective that both mean the same thing. Other than that, the analysis of Williams' character seems accurate and to me, anyway, it seemed to be revealed in scene in the film where he was talking to the soldiers in the truck convoy. They were meant to be seen as frightened, if not outright terrified, heading into combat and Williams, as Cronauer, seemed to be speaking as himself.

I remember the first morning in Cu Chi, which was a Monday. Our unit had arrived the late afternoon before from Ft. Campbell, KY. Someone had left the radio on all night when at 0555 hours in the morning some classical music came on then faded. A military chaplain came on and shared some inspirational words, the music came on. Then at 0600 hours a few notes from a flute played followed by, "Gooooooood morning, Vietnam!" We thought that was so damn funny. What a way to begin our tours of duty.

And having said that.....who wants cake? ,:-D

I was honored to meet him while I was stationed at Andrews AFB and he generously signed by GMV music CD. I always hoped to get RW's as well but that never happened. RIP Adrian and Robin

It is not surprising that Cronauer was on radio he has a great radio voice.

After that movie came out a local dj kept playing that over and over again during his show until I picked up the phone and asked him to stop. He couldn't understand why. Adrian alluded to it in this interview. I said we woke up to that every morning. You'd open your eyes and be reminded of where you are. The dj was surprised at my reaction and said, your serious? I hadn't seen the movie yet and loved it when I finally did. I also read English to a school there and have always thought that if you weren't in combat, but a support troop, it captured quite a bit of life over there. I was amazed the dj stopped playing "Gooood morning, Viet Nam for a couple of weeks and when he did again, it was not so often. I was glad to be able to watch and hear what Adrian had to say. I was with MACV Advisory Team 75 from 1967 - 1969.

I was there in 1966 and I remember the first time I heard that I was like, what the hell?.There ain't nothing good about this morning, knucklehead!! Guys who'd been there longer said that's just how the man opens his show. Lighten up, you'll get to liking it. They were right. After a week or so hearing that in the morning meant, damn,! I survived another day! When we saw the movie, I told my wife that the only thing that I recall being accurate was the "Good morning. Vietnam!" but Cronauer did it more drawn out with different cadence or intonation, whatever it was. But thank you, Adrian, you made my pre-flight mornings a little bit more pleasant.

RIP Andrian Cronauer. RIP Robin Williams

I could listen to his voice all day.

I met Adrian (or Ade) in the fall of 1960 when I first started college at American University in Washington, D>C>.. I helped him one time with recording a promotional song for use on the carrier-current radio station at AU. I was the recording engineer as he sang and played his song on the organ "Turn Your Radio On"..

A true hero of mine from a time long ago....

What a character! A real pleasure to have (indirectly) met the real man himself.

2021 i recognized the name immediately.. what a beautiful voice

I worked off-duty at the AFR affiliate in Karamrsel, Turkey, 1970-72 -- 18 months of good memories with good people. I was part-time on the week-end, but the entire staff made me welcome -- and I learned a lot of radio's tricks of the trade from the best.

I'm here, most likely, from having watched clips from Good Will Hunting, in which Williams played a therapist working with a genius kid who lived behind a very aggressive wall. It's hard for me to remember that he did not write his own lines in that--but man, he sure played 'em like he'd lived them, at least from the other side.

BBC Radio 4 has just broadcast a programme (voiced by Cronauer), commemorating the 40th anniversary of the end of the Vietnam war and it was brilliant. Cronauer is just so good at telling at relating the story of the war (with music to match).

this was wonderful. Thank you so much for posting this. It's so great!

I think Robin Williams was one of the most creative persons/ performers I've never met. The thing he said about Robin was always "on". That he was always doing a bit or what not so that people never got to see the "real" Robin Williams. Idk, for him to commit suicide, he must have gotten really lonely doing that. Also, this is just me thinking but in text, I think he was bi-polar. And most of the time he was doing his thing & on a high but other times when he FINALLY RELAXED he would fall into a low and it developed into depression. And everytime he eventually relaxed and went into a low, the depression of the low got deeper & deeper. And ultimately the depression was so low he couldn't find a way of climbing out. It's really sad how we can think we know a person & end up finding out we didn't really know them at all. And all the characters he created just off the top of his head, although very creative was him blocking people out of getting to know him. It makes me wonder who hurt him so bad for him to constantly put up such a front. It must have really gotten exhausting hence the deeper & deeper lows. I saw my wife struggle with bi-polar depression for 8 years before dying of complications from COPD. And with her being diagnosed as terminal with 2-6 years to live, her being bi-polar & menopause was wreaking havoc with her hormones, OMG, but I did everything I could for her. Was extremely patient with her. And caring for her 24-7 got me to where I was falling asleep standing up. Many times I fell & hit the ground simply because I was so tired & would fall asleep on my feet.

Hey, this reminds me of that film.

Great presentation!!!!

What he says he is? A lawyer? For a lawyer he had quite a clear picture of Robin when he spoke about the wall Robin has built around himself... I like Cronauer, really. He's a bit self-ironic with a pinch of sarcasm. And a quiet speaker with a very comfortable voice.

Ive never seen the movie but ive known your famous catchphrase for as long as ive been alive

Rest in peace, Adrian

Yup,Army...1969. The fictional Adrian Cronauer should have been court martialed several times.

Great ending!

I perked up as soon as I heard his voice. I've read about ASMR and believe that certain voices affect certain people. I had an elementary school teacher that also gave me that "buzz" when he spoke. It makes for great military leaders as well. People will automatically listen to people with voice with this much charisma.

That was a pretty damn good laugh at the end! It'd be FASCINATING to hear even a small portion of news from back in 1965. If not to hear what it was ACTUALLY like back then, then to hear the different mannerisms or references used. To think that's 50 years ago now, wow. Well you know, not that I was actually there, but it doesn't seem that far back when you're into studying Victorian/WWI/WWII history. I'm glad he pulled off a proper GOOOOOOD MORNING VIETNAM at the end though, it killed me each time he said it half heartedly. Kinda disappointed to hear it's not quite as intense as Williams' rendition, but very interesting to hear none the less. I actually started one of my shooting range vids with it when, just before one of em started recording, he jokingly said "GOOOD MORNING VIETNAM!" I was actually laughing at the joke when the recording started, and decided to give it a go. Then went about what I was shooting (No.4 Mk.I Lee Enfield), and cursing when I didn't quite load it correctly. I'm not really one to swear, but I suddenly felt like getting animated and energetic on starting with such a high note. After that, the quick bolt work and aimed shots. I tell ya, you'd be hard pressed to find a smoother/faster bolt action rifle than a Lee Enfield ;)

I am so happy I never heard that show live. I got into the Navy in 74. By the time I was finished with boot camp and A school, and FRAMP, nearly a year had gone by. My squadron was about to return home when the Mayaguez was attacked. Instead of sending fresh meat to just ride right back home, I stayed with the FRAMP squadron until mine returned. So, missed it by that much. ]---[

Its nice to know he's not bothered by the lack of accuracy in the movie. I doubt the movie would have been very good otherwise. Besides, Armed Forces Radio and Television is meant for morale. No combat vet needs the news to tell him how depressing and brutal the realities of war are.

Rest in Peace Sgt Cronauer

God bless you

@volumecorps Most true stories are like that and I think Adrian is intelligent enough to know that and, even with the changes to events, it still brought AFVN to light, gave a softer side, and more humanized feeling, than other movies of the 80's. I wish he had more applause, I loved every bit of it. :) My favorite was "I was not teaching because I was trying to meet this particularly beautiful Vietnamese girl, at least not one particular beautiful Vietnamese girl". :)

Never knew it’s was a true story!
