SWIFT BOATS BRAVE SAILORS and THE LAST PATROL
Glad that i discovered your channel. You'll be recommended by me to all that i know that appreciate the stories that you have!
Controversial...u mean false flag or propaganda
Yes Kerry is a putz. He did go. He did fight. And he was hit twice. One of the wounds was legit. Just saying.
Many thanks to those brave brown water sailors.
Kerry has no place in our government! Vietnam Vet Tom
John Kerry the unpatriotic , and coward in Biệt Nam . He has no right to speak with bravery US navy sailors .
I served in one of PCF in Việt Nam from 1972-1975 in the middle VN . Love it . I am proudly serving our Republic of the south Việt Nam . Thank you for you great serve , and sacrifice time in Douth Việt Bam . 👍✌️🙏
You are welcome ! Vietnam Vet Tom
The Brass wanted the war to drag on, thereby nourishing the war machine. Just like Ukraine, Afghanistan and Iraq. A holes stuffing their pockets while standing in the blood of good men.
This was before John Kerry was found to be "forgetful" about his military history...
Nothing but Respect for the Swift Boat Sailors. They were floating targets in Vietnam. No hole to crawl into, just open water, I was a Tin Can Sailor, we would give them Anything they needed when they came alongside.
Thank you for your service !🙏🇺🇸🎉
Excellent ❤
Excellent post! Thank you!
Thank you all for your service

KERRY? Nothing but a Virtue Pedaling Nazi.
what a disgrace that they let John Kerry preside over that swiftboat retirement. a dishonorably discharged person from the Navy!!
I WAS JUST ABOUT to Post the exact same thing....
John Kerry was not dishonorably discharged from the Navy, look it up. In fact he was a decorated serviceman. Both of you posters tell us what you did in the Vietnam war and your decorations. Both of you bought in to Republican Kool Aid, even though you did nothing!!!
The commentator gives the impression the the Swift boat fired on the VC first. This breaks the first "Rules of engagement" he also gives the Impression that the Swift boat was inland when it engages the VC. This breaks the third "Rules of Engagement" for SWIFT boats. On the other hand I would have given the OIC and Crew a big ataboy.
U.S.N.1969
Benavides wrote a book. What is the name of it?
I was with the Seabees that built you Swiftboat and PBR camp in Ha Tien. MCB 5 !!! you were a good bunch of guyes !!!
great video can't find anything on the Junk force SAT CONG
This is an awesome tribute to a hero who made the ultimate sacrifice. Joe "Sandy' Sandoval PCF 32 PCF65 .
Now the VA hospital is run by gooks
Countless billions spent millions of people killed all for nothing
It's 55 years since the American War and the government of Vietnam is still standing strong. The same thing happened in Afghanistan and Iraq. The moral of the story is never invade another country. People will never give up the fight for there own country no matter how screwed up it is.
Thank you for your service
John Kerry had no business being there. On behalf of my father "Welcome Home" to all the Vietnam vets out there.🇺🇲🏴☠️🇺🇲🏴☠️🇺🇲🏴☠️🇺🇲🏴☠️🇺🇲
We will not forget Bobby Don's service to our country and his supreme sacrifice. Thanks for the Swift Boat photos, the tombstone, and Psalm 23. Sent by one who served in Swifts and who had just returned to the States at the time of Bobby's death.
My dad was petty officer first class and was the captain of two boats “River destroyers” was there Patch.
God bless the saliors of the United States Navy!
These brave crews performed their greatest service to this country when they rightly & effectively ended John Kerry's presidential aspirations! Long may they prosper!
For some people, their fight for this nation doesn't necessarily mean that they were good people. I will always respect their service, however I refuse to respect or comply with their agenda to take our rights and freedoms. Kerry is one of those few of which I speak.
God Damn John Kerry and his lying mouth.
Thanks Bean . . . ⚓
I watched it joking around thinking maybe I'll see John Kerry shooting a gun. Oh no I saw him come up to the dock and step away from the helm and let someone else dock the boat
A blot on the entire navy and it’s Officers corps. The medals he “threw over the fence “ in DC were only the “I was there too”. He had no personal decorations.
Who did that?
stolen arms? VC were shooting M-16
@17:05 did that cutter shoot and sink an unarmed transport with 5 inch guns?
Yup. The boat refused to yield... Boom! 💥
The Tonkin Gulf incident never happened! It was a lie cooked up by our government to use as an excuse to get us involved in the Vietnam conflict; the only purpose of our country's fighting the Vietnam War was for the financial benefit of the American Military Industrial Complex!
NON GRATUM ANUS RODENTUM Tunnel Rats... P.O.W. M.I.A. Never Forget
Anyone here remember Enlisted Dave Smith or Lt. Dan Marshall they were both on river boats in Nam
Do you remember. : RON. WAIT. Swift boats. …………?
Why was that cowardly John Kerry allowed even close to the brave men that didn’t shoot them selves and putting himself in for three Purple Hearts that he didn’t deserved. Then lied in Congress about Vietnam to get his foot in to being a crooked lying coward politician. Disgrace to the US Navy and the men who gallantly served.
How did they not remember pt boats from 15 years before
Love this song... Reminds me of my absolute favorite Vietnam Documentary. Dear America letters home from Vietnam. Rented it so many times they actually gave it to me. I watched it until the VHS tape finally broke....THANK YOU ALL, WELCOME HOME......
WELCOME HOME, THANK YOU ALL, GOD BLESS YOU.
Wow, just when I thought I saw everything.... Amazing video. Thank you.
I’m a kid of American soldier before Vn war, I was born in 1973 , one time I saw my father in pictures, he have upper beard 🧔♂️ I hope 🤞I can find him, I want to know who is he and how he looks like !… I’m away thinking about him and wishing to see him again 🥲🥲 My mother name is Ghe if you remember!!!! Now I’m living here in the America 🇺🇸 I and my family are so happy and blessed 😊 Gods blessings America 🇺🇸
It was great until that long,ugly face of Traitor John made an appearance.....that`s when I tune out.....Mr.Jane Fonda himself.....
