Desert Storm troops returning home had their arrivals announced over the air port speaker. The people would stand up and cheer them as the troops exited the plane.

I'm sorry as an American anyone that served this country was EVER treated like that!!!! Thank all of you for your service. I'm so ashamed

They followed orders to go there, but they could have said no to murdering kids and wives

I soon learned to not put it on a job application or tell anyone that I was a Vietnam veteran. We were considered damaged, drug addicts.

Same here, learned to leave it off job applications.

its a disgrace how these soldiers were treated when they returned. You can thank the media for that.

And none of those guys thought about going to the airport once in a while to take care of the ones coming in on that day? Really? Well that's just too bad.

I was the there the last year of the war. We CLOBBERED the invading North Vietnamese army at the town of An Loc, north of Saigon. Their only recourse was to retreat back into Cambodia. They learned a VERY valuable lesson in that invasion. That lesson: They could NEVER conquer South Vietnam as long as the USA was able hit their massed forces with bombs from B-52's. That changed (two years after the American ground forces had been removed from South Vietnam, 1975) when the American Congress NOT ONLY refused to continue funding the South Vietnamese Army...BUT (and probably more importantly)...REFUSED to fund B-52 raids against the invading North Vietnamese Army. Those two actions KILLED 10's of THOUSANDS of South Vietnamese and inflicted Communist rule over the South. There was NOTHING lacking in our military regarding the end of that war. The US military WON the war in early 1973! The fall of the South was all in the treasonous actions of the Democrats in Congress....PERIOD! The SAME treasonous bunch that sold out Afghanistan and its people to those Muslim fanatics.

The North Vietnamese offered a face-saving deal to Nixon. Sign a peace treaty and we'll behave for several years. Nixon knew then that once we got our boys safely home, people won't give a darn about Vietnam anymore.

How can you sell how can you advertise over people's death

Never forget that just like there are Vietnam veterans out there, there are the people that spat on them, & called them baby killers out there too. Funny you don't see those people admit it, or see them being interviewed.
