You can feel the stress that this Marine is experiencing as he recounts his time in Vietnam and his return stateside. I pray that he knows that he is respected by more people than he will ever know. I pray that you will find the peace that you deserve.

I was drafted in Marines 18 January 1966. Drafted Marines in 1966 and 1967. 20 were drafted on 18 January 1966 in Detroit Fort Wayne . 4 KIA of the 20 . One of the four awarded Silver Star Posthumously, Sargent Benjamin Richardson.

Great story! Semper Fi Marine! My daddy was a Marine Master Sargent when he retired. We spent 2 and a half year's on Okinawa from 1968 to 1971. Best tour of duty I experienced. When we flew home in May of 1971. The plane was full of Marines going home from Vietnam. Welcome home!

Wow what honestly my father was stationed at Camp Pendleton in 1969 and I lived on the base

Warren Heeter in Vancouver Wa. He had 3 or 4 battle promotions. His unit was in a triangle area, his guys rescued a special forces base, overrun. He has the survivor problem today. Please try and find him, he deserves a recording, thank you.

Thank you Susan.

This is just a personal observation I'm making here and not a political one. And I hope I'm not being disrespectful. Watching these videos is hard because I can't imagine what it must be to be a good and decent person, as I believe most people at heart are, and yet at a very young age (often just out of high school or college) to have to do, as your job/ your patriotic duty (or so you're told), unimaginably brutal, dangerous and violent things and have the same done to you and your comrades, including leading to their deaths or permanent injuries in some cases in front of your eyes, and yet afterwards if you survive return to your ordinary decent civilian life. To have to bury the horror deep inside you and go back to a world where people are expected to honour the fifth commandment, rather than to breach it and where no one who hasn't been there can comprehend what you've had to do or experience. I'm not talking only about Vietnam here. This applies to any war no matter what side, no matter how morally or politically justified or how much you may believe in it. I was luckily a little too young to go to Vietnam (although a couple of my teachers at school back then were recent vets) and they haven't had the draft for a war since so I never had to make the ultimate terrible personal sacrifice and service all these young men had to make.
