My lovely American next door neighbour said he and his brothers as well as his counsins were fought in Vietnam. He was a Marine. His elder brother was an Air Force pilot, and his younger brother was in the Navy. His cousin of his father's side was in the Army while his cousin of his mother's side was a Marine helicopter pilot. He and his relations were there between 1965 &1969. Then his helicopter pilot cousin came back to the States in 1971, and his army cousin too left Vietnam in 1972 & came back to his beloved wife and their little boy & girl in Washington state USA. He said he always feel relief and pleased whenever he talk about it as each of them came back home alive and in one piece though he had a minor injury on his hand by the shrapnel of the Viet Cong's hand grenade blast and his army cousin too whose helmet saved his fore head from getting shot by the NVA's AK-47 assault gun bullet.

If I'm not mistaken, a gung ho squad leader followed an NVA soldier into a trap that led them into being cutoff, correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure that is how I remember reading it in "We Were Soldiers Once and Young" by Joe Galloway and Hal Moore. In this documentary series (I have the DVD set) they portray it as a heroic grenadier. I may have this battled crossed with another but I have studied this war for many years and I think the Vietnam Veterans are some of the best soldiers in the history of the U.S I try to tell people its OK to oppose a war but we should ALWAYS support the brave men and women who fight as they are simply following orders. Though I'm a fierce liberal and can see that I'm in the minority on many of these types of videos and such, I always support the troops and admire the strength and courage that they show in the face of death.

Back then the award needed be given within a certain time frame, a very short one at that. In 1996 they changed the "rules" making past acts of heroism eligible. The book came out in 1992 after a US News World Report article written by Galloway that was intriguing enough to land him and Hal the book deal. That attention brought the actions of Snake and Too Tall to the forefront. When the rules changed in 1996 Crandall took his own name out of contention believing that would give Too Tall a better chance of being recognized. Crandall felt it was his job to go back as the leader. Too Tall volunteered to go as well and Crandall didn't want that. Crandall thought if something happened to himself he would need Too Tall to take over his responsibilities. Crandall also knew that arguing with Too Tall was pointless so they "agreed". Crandall felt Too Tall was the hero because Too Tall didn't have to go. So in 2001 they gave Too Tall the MOH. www.defense.gov/explore/story/Article/1822476/medal-of-honor-monday-army-capt-ed-freeman/ Crandall received his in 2007.

So when we watch these videos, it details what occured even though you may say, why it take so long, the MOH has to be verified to receive it

The movie “We Were Soldiers” shows wrong tactic of National Liberation Front of South Vietnam (NLFSVN). In fact, NLFSVN did not use the "human sea" tactic. Due to occupying the battlefield first, an ambush can destroy many different American troops, and ambushes can also support one another. Although the number of United States + Republic of Vietnam (US+RVN) was larger, in terms of the proportion of NLFSVN vs US+RVN at each site, NLFSVN was larger because they had torn the US+RVN amphibious forces. This led to the US+RVN mistaking NLFSVN to use a human tactic. ---------- The Battle Ia Drang at Wikipedia in Vietnamese: vi.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tr%E1%BA%ADn_Ia_%C4%90r%C4%83ng Google translation: translate.google.com/translate?sl=vi&tl=en&u=https%3A%2F%2Fvi.wikipedia.org%2Fwiki%2FTr%25E1%25BA%25ADn_Ia_%25C4%2590r%25C4%2583ng ---------- The Battle Ia Drang was at 2 sector: X-Ray and Albany: - At X-RAY: draw - At Albany: the Americans were almost wiped out and lost the battlefield

What part of the Tonkin Gulf incident was a lie. The USS Maddox and Turner Joy were in the area and were " attacked " by Patrol Boats from the Noth Vietnamese . The government could have used the embassy bombings , hotel bombings or Air Force base bombings to escalate the war . The Tonkin Gulf incident may have been a half truth , but by 1964 Vietnam was about to fall and the U S had over 10 years of promises and commitments to live up to . The slide into Vietnam was a slow one , and you don't hear too much about what happened for the 10 years prior to August 1964 .

Another thing that would have been eerie and scary at the same time and that's when all the sudden you can't see any movement at all but you can actually smell the.

Nowhere near AK 47 has been around since 1948 and the M16 was adopted by the US Army in 1964 and issued to special forces, airborne and assault units.

Into the valley of death flew the aircav Nva to the left and right of them But on they went Gallant few hundred

I saw at least 3 or 4 U.S soldiers using AKs in this video.Am i the only one that saw that?

The m16 at that time was a piece of shit so American soldiers would snatch up an ak47 and throw their m16 away

The Sad part of this is our Own Govt has killed more Veterans with Chemicals they Sprayed all over the Country. I am still living, but have Heart Pacemaker, two Stents, Radiation treatment for Prostrate Cancer. Now I have Lung issues and can’t breath properly. My Brother a Year Older never went and has non of these issues. Army says I Smoked.! I Prepared the Men for the Trip Home in 65 and 66. Thanks Uncle!
