Thank you for your service and I do mean your service because the families back home are in the military along with the soldier. They just don't get paid for it.

As A daughter of a Vietnam veteran I tried to understand what my dad went through while he served. My pop was drafted in 1965. It neveroccured to him to dodge the draft. By the time I was born he had been home around five years. I remember having short discussions with him about his war experiences. My dad mostly talked about the happy side of war. I could tell though through his eyes that there was pain from war. I am proud of my dad service to our country. Never forget!!!!

Those of us who came of age in the Army in the late 70’s and early 80’s were incredibly fortunate to have been trained, counseled, lead and mentored by Vietnam Veterans, who for reasons beyond belief, chose to stay in uniform. Those of us who served in Iraq and Afghanistan were the direct beneficiaries of the dark cloud of shame that overcame the non-serving boomer generation, who as they matured, and in installments, realized their anger was grossly misplaced at the Vets, and not the civilian leadership that sent the military to SE Asia. It was that collective guilt that allowed those of us serving in an equally unpopular war to be fairly immune from the shameful treatment shown to this generation of Warriors. I hope Vietnam Veterans can find some small comfort in knowing that you were icons to those of us who followed in your footsteps, as we were able to stand on the shoulders of giants. I was able to walk through the Atlanta Airport to embarrassing applause during my mid- Iraq tour leave because the collective conscience of a nation finally stopped mistaking the war for the Warrior. Just like Iraq and Afghanistan, the war was lost by the suits, not the boots. Welcome home my elder brothers!

Ive often said, the absolute best part of my Army service (1982- 1987 Armor) was the fact that 98% of our NCOs and COs were Vietnam combat vets. Most wore CIBs & jump wings. While promotions were VERY slow in the 80s due to all the slots being full with Vietnam vets pulling their 20, their training and leadership was second to none. All the garbage they seen and lived , remfs, racism, protest, just plain old stupid, etc, etc, they just REFUSED to tolerate it, so our exposure to stupid bullshit was minimal. All the things they had in hindsight, they wished they were taught back then, we were taught. We were as ready for combat as they could teach us. And they went out of their way to teach those who wanted to learn. Want to qualify on a .50 cal, just ask. Want to learn about booby traps, just ask. We had hands on classes on both. These guys were just fantastic. While 100% no nonsense, ZERO bullshit tolerant, and very stern, they understood EXACTLY what it was like just to try and be a GOOD soldier, do the job, and try to survive. They understood us and gave us what they had wanted themselves back in the day. Good training & Respect. It was an Honor to be under their command. We learned to love and respect them. They were certainly worthy. Their lessons stayed with me for 35 years still. Thank you Gentlemen. Welcome Home.

Thank you for your service, and the statement.

I saw the war from both sides. I deployed from FT Benning, GA with the 1st Cavalry Division (Airmobile) in August 1965. I extended my tour to May 1967 because I really had nothing at home to come back to and my brothers in arms were my family. I served as a gunner on a UH-1D Huey in one of our aviation battalions. So, I went early and came back early in the war before the protests began. The guys in the vid are right, 1 day you are in a war, and a couple of days later you are back home and a civilian. I found out quickly that I really couldn't hang with my old friends anymore, just because I couldn't relate. They were doing the same old things I'd been doing before I left. Nothing had changed for them. No hatred was shown to me when I came home, the world was just status quo, it was as if nothing was going on half a world away. I didn't expect any kind of welcome home, and didn't really care for one. My problem was just trying to blend back in. In my civilian jobs the boss would say "it's really important we get this job done" or something like that. I couldn't relate to that. Just a short time before "important" was a hot LZ, extraction of troops under fire, emergency ammo resupply at night under fire and all of those other things that made the adrenaline flow to the max. It seemed like everything else was just mundane with no meaning. So, we went thru the motions and kept to ourselves. This isn't a "poor me" rant, just the way it was back then. Why did the protests start? I think in large part it was because Viet Nam was a TV war. You can't sit down, watch the news day after day and see young men bleeding and dying without having an effect. Eventually, it grinds you down and you began to question "why". It certainly effected me, and I was so ready for my brothers to come home. I'm proud of my service, I did 32 years in the Army. I will say that in all of those years, and all of my life, I never found the closeness and brotherhood that I had in Viet Nam. We, for the most part, don't talk about our time in war. I think that's true of any combat veteran. It's hard to put into words the images that will remain with you forever, especially when talking to someone without the same experiences. So, until the day I die, whenever I meet a fellow Viet Nam vet it's always a handshake, or a hug, and a "Welcome Home Brother". This is a long post, and may not be read, but after all this time it's off of my chest..

Thank you. I flew C-123 k . Landed at 50 runways there. Then, was the Supervisor of Flying at UT the day Vietnam fell. What a day that was. Imagine this. A U-2 with Vietnamese children sitting on the leading edges. I can't find a picture.

You just can't shut it off. My folks didn't get it, when I ate out of cans of food, slept on the floor cause each time I tried a mattress I felt Like I was falling, sleeping on the ground was my norm. I began to drink to sleep, then drank when I woke up for about 5 years. Coming home, getting off the plane with cops in lines, holding back old ladies and crowds spitting at us screaming baby killers, began my journey home. God bless my brothers, these guys got me teary-eyed.

My husband is a Viet Nam Veteran. He never talks about it except in his nightmares. We have been married for 49 years and I can not remember one night that he has not fought the war over and over and over. Many, many times he calls out for dead friends, he calls out orders. One night he yelled grenade and coved me with his body. I can not even imagine what happened to cause his nightmares. During the day he is as anyone you might meet on the street but at night he is punished with memories that must be so very painful. I wish he would talk to me about it but he will not.

I've said welcome home to every vet I've seen since the 60s. Sometimes it's brought them and me to tears. If you're one reading this, welcome home. I wish I could shake your hand.

My grandfather was First Sergeant E-8 Robert Carl Blevins Sr aka Bruno. He joined Army Airborne in 51 and retired in 71 after 20 years service. He did two combat tours in Vietnam and was there in 65 66 68 69 70. He was stationed at FSB KELLY and FSB STINGER. He first went to Vietnam in 65 66 with MACV to train a South Vietnamese Artillery battalion in the Mekong Delta. He saw serious action with the 101st , 82nd , and the 173rd airborne brigade. On November 3rd 1969 enemy Vietcong launched a surprise morning attack on FSB STINGER and my grandfather led the counter attack for the Americans inflicting maximum casualties upon the enemy and forcing them to withdraw. My grandfather was awarded the bronze Star for valor for this action. He was highly decorated and was awarded four bronze Stars and one was for valor with the V device. I learned more about my grandfather's military career from the paperwork I received after his death. I'm very proud of my grandfather and am honored to be the first born grandson of first sergeant E-8 Robert Carl Blevins Sr. I have the utmost respect for all Vietnam Veterans !!! God bless you all.

I was drafted after graduating college and after basic was trained at Ft Sill as a Fire Direction specialist and my first assignment was with the 101st 12 miles south of the DMZ in Quang Tri. I pray Americans never again treat their servicemen and women the way we were treated upon arriving home.

He believed if we found out what he had done there we wouldn't love him anymore. The Army gave my Dad shiny things to reward his commiting atrocities. He never put an angry hand on my Mom or spanked me or my brother. My Mom said when we got older we would understand. One of the things that helped was from "Apocalypse Now". The French widow is talking to Willard about her husband. He became two people. The one who kills and the one who loves. I don't care what my Dad did over there. He killed because he was a soldier.

Would be one thing guarding USA’s perimeter, that’s not done at all but ((w/o exception)) forces are deployed worldwide for nothing more than the benefit of the few pulling strings from the top of the monetary pyramid … Matter of fact the gulf of Tonkin incident was a ruse ((the account of that day released 35 years later forced out by foia)) US Marine ship was never attacked. Why would they attack a fully armed powerhouse like that ?? Look into it they did NOT attack shit. So the whole reason givin for goin into Vietnam was bullshit, what other things are 100% pure bullshit that we the gullible people believe!? lol is what i have to ask myself. In no way do I blame the 60k mostly young men that died in the Vietnam “conflict” that will never have a chance to fully mature, have children, grandchildren, or Experience love. Is sickening that some people are SO brainwashed they believe “freedom” was somehow obtained by going into that country ((or any country for that matter)) & killing ANYONE-soldiers or civilians . -Iraq let’s see what was the lie….oh yeah Sadaam had “weapons of mass destruction“ catch video of the POS satanist bushlll joking about his lie later on at a dinner as the peanut gallery laughs “ none under there how about here no none there how about here” real funny. damned soul’s are funny now I guess Also can’t blame the soldiers that survived the conflict, but look at the way vets are treated upon returning home after doing the dirt for those assholes. Like throwaways. Something is beyond fkd up in this current and past model. Instead Use that high nitrogen fertilizer to water a giant tree . The one that’s being chopped on like never before

I’m a former Army Ranger and desert storm vet and I couldn’t make a pocket on these men’s shirts. Welcome home to all of you fine men that served in Nam and to your brothers who paid the ultimate sacrifice, your galant heroism and fight for life liberty and the pursuit of happiness is not in vain. You’re watching over your brothers and you kept them safe while they were still serving out their tour of duty. RIP heroes

No one lived the shit like the grunts Army and Marines. I spent 10 years in the Navy and made two trips to Vietnam. The hardships I endured had to do with long hours of work and lack of sleep. As I talk to the grunts I see hero in every one of them, I almost feel like I stole whatever valor I have. I am proud of my time but the saying “all gave some, some gave all” certainly holds true for the ground pounders and I respect every one of them.

Nam vets are the best. Heart and soul of America. Your sacrifice is much appreciated.

I served in Vietnam in '66-'67 in Tonkin Gulf aboard a Navy oiler, refueling other Navy ships. No combat. My brother served at Cu Chi with the 25th infantry Div. He was injured by a landmine. Several of his buddies and his unit commander were killed by that same landmine. He has had PTSD since he returned, and turned to drugs and alcohol to cope. He has been very anti government, anti military since he returned. Vietnam ruined him mentally, and the VA has pretty much turned their back on him with his PTSD and mental issues. Way to go VA. Great job!

I'm ashamed of the leaders who failed these brave men.

My Father and Uncle both volunteered to go to Vietnam. They were so badly treated on return to Australia they would not admit their service until the late 80's.

My dad never talked about Vietnam until he developed dementia and Alzheimers. He can't remember 10 min ago but he can remember Vietnam. I'm 49 yrs old . It took my dad 45 yrs to tell me sum stories. It's horrific what he went through. He sometimes says at 75 he could still fight. I'm proud of him. He lost his brother there too. He took his life on his 2nd tour . I read the letter he sent my dad. That was the first time I saw him cry..He was 72

My dad's a Vietnam vet, my step dad served In Korea and Nam, my brother in the first gulf War, and me in both Iraq and Afghanistan, I'm proud of ever veteran. My dad still doesn't speak about his time in Nam, but after my experience I have a clue.

You have to be 46 to be a historian

After almost 50 years you had me from the moment I heard the blades of an approaching Huey. I still respond to the smell of diesel fuel, to mosquitoes, and to cold rains. Over the years, worse than being unemployed or underemployed, worse than the daily exposure to self-serving and self-absorbed American culture has been the grinding truth that Vietnam lifted the mask of illusions about my country from my mind forever separating me from mainstream society. At 69 I have come back to the house but I will never be back home.

It makes me ashamed of the people that treated these men so horribly! I for one am proud of every single solitary one men that fought in Vietnam. Whenever I encounter a veteran, I ask if they served...if they say yes, I thank them for their service. I don't ask where they served or what war. It doesn't matter! The fact that they stepped up and answered the call...they went! Please don't be dispectful of these men & women. You don't know what their experiences, therefore you shouldn't judge. For everyman that participated in in this video: THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE!!

From another veteran to ALL of the Vietnam vets, I’m glad you made it home and I salute you for your service. And to those who gave the ultimate sacrifice, I owe my life to you. As we sailors say, Bravo Zulu.

My closest friend is a Viet Nam Veteran. We met on-line about ten years ago & have remained friends ever since, e-mailing daily. We don't live in the same state and distance to travel & visit isn't an option right now. I was only three years old when he went to Viet Nam. He's in his seventies now & I'm 59. He is the most respectful & honorable man (apart from my Dad, a WWII veteran) that I've ever known. We've read through the Bible (old & new testaments) together twice so far. We share pictures & life's daily ups & downs. I can never fully imagine what veterans have gone through, but I do have an interest in learning about their experiences. I appreciate & honor all who serve this country. God bless Viet Nam Veterans.

I will always THANK OUR MILITARY FOR THERE SERVICE. GOD BLESS THEM ALL.

my husband Patrick was a Vietnam war vet, he was not a "flag waver ", never bragged about a horrible time of America's history, his feelings were always hurt because of the reception he and his "brothers" we're treated, and as Americans benefiting from his and all other vets, how dare we treat them as we did. and. now, the troops are treated the way Vietnam vets should have been.

Probably because not everybody that served committed those kinds of atrocities. Go to the Mai Lei Massacre on KZread and you’ll hear plenty of regretful veterans giving their thoughts on what it was like to kill women and children if that’s your bag. I’ve actually had to save a baby from a dog bite that later on died but because you are probably some dumb yankee up north freezing your stupid ass off because you don’t have enough sense to leave that God forsaken place.

I don’t even need to meet these men to love them with all of my heart. I have tremendous amount of respect and words that can’t even explain. Being 19 and seeing some of my generation lose the pride in our flag makes me sick. In high school, I’d spit on people that wouldn’t stand for the pledge. Like literally spit. If not that, they’d get some kind words. Thank you soldiers. ❤️

Thank you for this. The "what we know and were taught" about Vietnam never compares to what people like these gentlemen shared with us here.

This was so moving. I'm in shock. I was married to Vietnam vet who has passed now. Greatest man

My uncle went to Nam in 65 with the 3rd Marines. He came back and threw away his Purple Heart and other medals. I was about 6 at the time and played with his Marine insignias that he had left in my grandma's closet while he was gone. One day he walked in wearing his Marine Blues. I just stared up at him. It was the most beautiful thing I had ever seen. He's in his 70's now and I've always told him he is a hero now that I'm a grown man, just like all of Veterans out there. Thank you so much for all you have done . May the Lord bless all of you.

Uncle served in Vietnam, once asked him if he ever shot anyone, he just looked at me and said, “I don’t know but I shot at a lot of trees”, could tell he didn’t want to talk about it, I left it alone. I have two of his jackets, I treasure them...

Gut wrenching stories from these brave souls who found themselves in the most unimaginable situations. The devastating effects can only be known to those who were there and then to have the courage to share their stories on film or print, is simply amazing to me. These gentlemen come across the same in my opinion - honest, compassionate, loyal, brave, patriotic, and real. These are just words that hardly describe what these American soldiers are made up of. They are much more than that. As a Canadian police officer, I hold the utmost respect for anyone past or present who has put their lives on the line for their country, unit, and most importantly, their comrades and friends. It is not enough to just say Thank You. Give these people your respect, love, admiration, and compassion. Consider yourself extremely lucky if you never had to walk in their shoes. On this day I am saying THANK YOU! to all Vietnam Veterans out there. I have nothing but respect and love for you all.

I am trying to make peace with a dark place in my life while I was married to a Vietnam Vet. He rarely spoke of it. He was a violent alcoholic. When he did speak of it, he became child-like, ..terrified...guilt ridden. I've made peace with everyone in my life and forgiven them, but him..well, it's been hard. Watching this helps me to understand why he was the way he was. He's still living. He's still miserable. He's still an alcoholic.

Io riesco a concepire solo una guerra di difesa da una aggrssione, tutto il testo è propaganda politica con i militari usati come pedine. Un abbraccio dall'Italia.

This is one of the best retrospectives I've seen in bringing awareness to the spirit of that era of service. I was a Viet Nam era USMC MP but young enough I was at the tail end of the bitter Viet Nam conflict. As son of 2 foreign immigrants, I love deeply the force for goodness and liberty that America was meant to be. And am deeply troubled by the current generation that can withstand nothing tough, can't even be disagreed with, is owed a good time, and favors feelings over truth. God bless these men. And heal America. The current CoronaVirus is totally insignificant relative to future virus of potential socialism and an entire horde of children who can endure no hardship. Bless these men. God bless America.

I served 3 years over in Vietnam in Late 1965 to late 1968, remember coming home to being called a baby killer and many other names. Over all these decades I tried to put things behind me and forget, but there is never any forgetting, thank you for all of these brave people who testified as to the horrors of war in this video. It brought back a lot of memories that I tried to hide and forget for things that I had no control over except doing my duty to this country. As far as I am concerned, no politician should be in office unless they have vested interest in America and have served in in the military as proof of that interest. No more Wussies / Snowflakes / Soy Boys to tear down America after all we did to fight for in order to save America.

My dad and his brother, my favorite uncle, were in Vietnam. Father died at 49 and Agent orange ended up taking my uncle out. He was awarded a Purple Heart as he ran over a land mine with his Jeep and got injured. Neither one of them talked much about their time there, so I watch videos like this. Thanks.

This is by far the hardest thing I’ve ever watched. My grandfather served in Korea and Vietnam. I’m very glad to see that their stories aren’t being forgotten. God bless all of you who served in Vietnam.

Thank each and every one of you that served in Vietnam. I was a little girl in the 60’s. In 1970, I was in the 5th grade and got a POW bracelet. I wish I remembered the name of “my soldier” that was lost. I hope and pray that he made it back home. It still breaks my heart the way y’all were treated when y’all came back, y’all did not deserved the horrible treatment y’all got. Peace be with each one of you.

Thank you for watching my film. I have interviewed many veterans over the years. Too bad you don't remember his name. If you did I could maybe put out a word to see if we could find him. Let me know if I can help you. God bless you. My email: lcappetto@icloud.com

From the daughter of a Marine, thank you for your service. I'm as proud of you all as I am my own Daddy. I was too little to understand anything during Vietnam. I thought watching soldiers in battle on the news was just how life was. Fortunately we lived in a state in the middle where all soldiers were respected and appreciated. I'm sorry you all didn't have the same experience.

Thank you for watching my film about Vietnam. I am glad to hear your Father made it back. Please tell him, "WELCOME HOME," for me...Larry Cappetto.

We didn't lose the war, we walked away from it. The politicians tied our hands from the get go. They did not want to win. God Bless the men who had to endure this terrible burden.

Indeed. They wanted a perpetual war that the sinister military-industrial complex could use as firewood to burn off of forever...They'd find new ways to line their filthy pockets later on as we know...

The rich will always come out richer and look around at the rich who do they look like and they will call themselves patriotic people today and most of them today will get on me for taking a knee for a injustices l see 👀 and these cowards never served a day in the their life them or their family and to be treated like we were is what hurts someone like agent orange face who didn't serve because of his rich daddy and he has the nerve too call me unpatriotic because l take a knee for some injustice l see but you can tell all of the people who never served in the military 🪖 because they would know taking a knee isn't a slap at the military but yet they love the statues of traitors and that ugly flag that they whole so dearly saying it's part of whose culture it dam sure isn't mine because I'm not a traitor

I served in Vietnam 69-70 in the US Army. One thing this documentary does not mention is the soldiers who kept those helicopters flying..the maintenance teams...those soldiers who were the mechanics, supply people, all the support soldiers. I was proud to serve my country in Vietnam as a 67N20 helicopter mechanic team leader at Cu Chi, Long Binh, and Lai Khe. I had the dedication to my duty, too. I may not have been under fire, except when flying test flights, but I was there doing my duty to my country. If you want to call me a 'hero' for being there, go ahead but I was just doing my job for my country..plain and simple.

To all of the men and women who served in the armed forces of the United States during the Vietnam War, I say, "Thank you for your service and welcome home to the hearts of America". God bless you all.

I was born in 1969 but for some reason I feel unbelievably close to this conflict and my heart bleeds silently for the way the soldiers were treated when they came back, all I can say now is thank you

Happy veterans day & to everyone who has served or is serving just know we owe you everything. You don't hear it enough but you risked and risk it all for this country and we owe you everything. God bless you all and for the ones who have not and can not find peace I pray that God comforts you.

I love and appreciate EVERY ONE OF THESE VETS EVEN THOUGH I WAS BORN IN 68. I NEVER HAD AN OPPORTUNITY TO THANK EVEN ONE SO I HOPE JUST ONE WILL HEAR ME NOW, THANK YOU FOR YOUR SACRIFACE IM FOREVER GRATEFUL!!

immigrant and former soldier in foreign country at age 18 ,and proud US citizen now, can not say enough thanks to you in American military uniform , reason behind our freedom and existence is nobody but you heroes ,best of respect to you all.

WOW!! One of the best doc's I've ever seen about the vietnam war and the soldier's experiences there and when they returned. And THANK YOU so much for your service. Of course I will happily donate and sponsor a veteran story. No one should sacrifice so much and be treated so poorly. I'm sooooo very sorry.
