Detective Salary Cuts ? You called me a deranged nutjob for no reason and w no evidence and I asked you to provide some and then you claim I’m pushing “my truth”. If it so easily disprovable please do, and I initially said it as a humorous statement but judging by your emotional and frail reaction i can tell you’re in the left and thus have no concept of humour 🤦🏾♂️🤣 everything offends you eh lil boy ? But yet you have no facts of your own to disprove “my truth” or what people in reality call, the truth. You made this political and about name calling not me goof.🤷🏾♂️
The "Hanoi Hilton" was a facility set-up by the French to be used on the Vietnamese. And the Vietnamese continued using to for American POWs.

Hey Mr. Terry! I’m loving the videos man keep up the great work!!
Abuse in POW camps is all about who is in charge. You want even-tempered soldiers with no want of glory and no care one way or the other about the enemy. A good choice is the religious and medical soldiers, as they temd to see ”the enemy” as other humans to be treated with basic respect and cared for. Not every country has a volunteer army and even with wars like Iraq and Afghanistan, not all the men WANTED to be there (it was just the better option ). A tiny bit of human kindness can make everyone ’s lives easier is my motto and no sense using torture or other bothersome things when most prisoners respond if you treat them as human (keyword: most). One of the things I always keep in mind: Sadam Hussain was a FASTIDIOUS neat freak and being allowed to wipe his hands and small eating space made him grateful and compliant. He did horrid things, but small human kindnesses got through more than any beating or torture would.

Jeremiah Denton was the longest serving POW of the Vietnam War, he wrote a book about his time as a POW called 'When He'll was in Session.' I read the book as a freshman in high school every student should read this.
Love your video Mr. Terry. I'm actually in a jungle in Vietnam right now.
Simple History is an awesome channel I really like to see this
Hei, i really like your videos. I'm from Romania and i would really love to see you react to : Battle of Targoviste (Part 1/2 and Part 2/2) ⚔️ Vlad the Impaler Rises from Historymarche channel. We really like our history and we really love Vlad so i think you will make some views and likes from romanians if you do this ^^. Also i think Vlad the Impaler has some pretty bad ass battles through history, you will be entertained :D. Cheers and keep up the good work.
Great vid
You should check out extra credits history videos. They are quite specific and highly interesting.
You should do Crash Course History stuff!!
Hey Mr Terry; nice video. I have a suggestion for a reaction; The Greco-Chinese war over the heavenly horses by kings and generals. It’s how the east met the west and allowed the formation of the Silkroad I found it very informative.
Deffo should react to some of Mark Felton Productions work, really detailed videos on predominantly war related history
I've known this story for quite awhile, but I didn't realize that this happened a year into his captivity and he was there 8 years total. That's insane! That whole war was a hot mess
Hey I am a great fan of your content!!!! I'm not sure if you have seen the musical called Hamilton but even if so I was wondering if you would react to both songs of "You'll Be Back" and "What Comes Next?" which are songs by King George during the Revolutionary War. The first song I listed is him singing to the colonies before the war and the other song is from after the war. If you wouldn't mind doing it, I think it would be amazing!! Thank you for keeping history alive and fun!!
Fun fact: Denton later served as a Republican Senator from Alabama From 1981-1987
Please watch: The Russian 2nd Pacific Squadron - Voyage of the Damned by Drachinifel It is the story of russian "warships" sent as reinforcement in the Russo-Japanese War. This is not a rejected Monty Python script but actual history.
at4:40, also LBJ didn't allow bombers to shoot down anti aircraft equipment. The reason the war dragged on and so many US soldier died was because of the incompetence of LBJ and how he forced US soldiers to fight with their hands tied behind their backs.
this might actually be the best youtube i’ve ever accidentally found 😂

I remember this being covered in the Ken Burns documentary. But that whole documentary... that was hard to watch all the way through but I'm glad for the information it gave me on such an event in our history. I highly recommend it. It's tough to get through, but it's important to watch from beginning to end.

Hi Mr Terry do you think you could react to some videos from the channel biographics. They make some very well researched videos on people from throughout history. Also geographics which is the same except about places from throughout history. Trust me you won’t be disappointed by their work it’s excellent.

Fabio Lacap You could say that, but in very broad strokes, the Geneva Convention has deterred misbehavior on both sides of a war involving signatories. I don’t think the North Vietnamese were a signatory and were declaring their compliance with the Geneva Convention without any concrete evidence of agreeing to it (nevermind actually complying)
