- Kiem Do, a colonel in the South Vietnamese Navy, remembers the solemn flag-lowering ceremony aboard the U.S.S. Kirk after the fall of Saigon.
"Last Days in Vietnam" airs April 28, 2015 on PBS American Experience.
13 Yrs old, South Vietnamese. As I watched this video, I felt like crying. My grandpa is Lt. Doan of the SVA, He lost one of his balls during the war. He told me a few stories of the war. Every day I wear a Pin of the South Vietnamese flag to school and every time I meet My Grandpa I give him a Salute and always shook his hand. He's still alive. When I go to the U.S army, I'm going to Serve for My country and represent Myself as a South Vietnamese-American Soldier.
Edit 3/23/2021: Lieutenant. Doan passed away at the age of 87 in June 2019. R.I.P - Thank you to all who showed interest. My goal to serve this nation's Army still stands!

@@kritische3959 He's not distorting history. The Government under Ferdinand Marcos in the Philippines recognized the new North Vietnamese controlled regime in Vietnam, which meant that they couldn't dock the ships to unload the refugees, which required the flag lowering ceremony to be necessary.

"I had lost my beloved country" These are the lucky men of the Army of Republic of Vietnam . The ones stayed behind like my father and his fellow officers and enlisted men had to endured captivity by the invading communist forces . They had lost their dignity , their homes , their families , their friends and most important of all their beloved country which they have defended valiantly against the tirade of invading communist forces only to be abandoned by their trusted friend and ally , the American government led Gerald Ford . The loss of dignity continued when the American Congress led by the so called anti war & peace loving Democrats (aka Joe Biden) tried to block the acceptance of the 200 000 refugees who recently lost their families and their homeland
Will u answer me this question my friend? If the communists were the bad guys who were invading and if south Vietnam was "free" and a better nation than the North like u describe it to be and if the communists wer eso oppressive and evil and if the Americans wer eso nice to u than tell me this how come the richer south Vietnam with billions of dollors given to develop bul y the strongest nation in earth including had that nations army behind it how did u fail to be at the m"sarable e"il and poorer communist North Vietnam somting doesn't add upp oh I see what it is the will fo the people the onyl reason the communists won is couse almost evry Vietnamese fought for there couse so u wer enever invaded ur own people the South Vietnamese told u and ur friends that if u want to fight for America u can f"ck o"f so answer me how u failed to beat that poor nation
The decision by the U.S Congress to withdraw troops from Vietnam wasn't done purely because the democrats were anti-war. The majority of Americans were against the war at this time, not the democrats. Blame the damn hippie movement, not the democrats. I also don't know how mentioning Joe Biden is even appropriate here. He had only just begun his political career like 1 year prior to the withdrawal from Vietnam.
bloody hell Biden really gets blamed for everything
You’re a brainwashed idiot
I wonder if there were any south Vietnamese Army Holdouts who kept fighting after the fall of Saigon ?
If only South Vietnamese government didn't have bad leadership and respected their people, it would have stayed where it was.
That and military aid for weapons, armored vehicles, and ammunitions running dry while China and Russia continued supplying Viet Congs.
Because the government was built by the imperialists and colonialists to serve their interests, thus it was never legitimate at all.
Am very sorry south vietnam it looks like north vietnam is the true country I’m sorry my own kind country south vietnam I’m in tear I’m from south vietnam.

Armies defeated by South Vietnam:
Guys I don’t want any argument but there is no good side in a war Only people that fought for what they believe in
To the south vietnamese I'm sorry that my country lost the war. If it weren't for the corrupted government, the leftist protesting the war, and the lack of strategy we could have won the Vietnam war. From the United States 🇺🇸
I agree with you 100%!
I am south Vietnam
Even when the Americans left, South Vietnamese forces made valiant efforts with dwindling resources and even stopped Viet Cong from advancing in some battles. Unfortunately, the military aid in weapons, ammunitions, etc. stopped and it was too much to overcome.

This is Afghanistan now
People try to apologize for the communists today. Maybe there's some truth to what they say, but that doesn't change the fact that these people fought and died for their country, a country they loved. It wasn't perfect, but it was _theirs._ The fact that American politicians played politics with Vietnam is pathetic and inexcusable, and our refusal to fight the war right cost these people their home. The fact that the communists didn't recognize that, for all their talk of freedom, _they weren't wanted,_ is just as cruel.

Rip south vietnam wait why everyone name was nguyen in vietnam
Not every one of Vietnamese descent has the last name of Nguyen.
Nguyen is the most common last name in Vietnam as it was the last Vietnamese Dynasty to exist. (143 years of existence)
There are still last names like; Vo, Ngo, Tram, Pham, Huynh, etc.
Fun Fact : Huynh last name origins aren't Vietnamese, they're Chinese. The Huynh Dynasty never existed as the Huynh last names originate from the Chinese Huang Dynasty.
The reason as to why they changed the name from Huang to Huynh was because of Vietnamese Taboo which forbids Chinese Last Names. The reason why Huynh even exists in the first place is that during the 1920s/30s many Chinese fled to Vietnam due to the CCP and RoC conflicts in China. (this is how my Grandfather came to Vietnam)

This was just my point of view, if the U.S didn't stop on providing some military aides on South Vietnam perhaps the tide of war could have been not in favor by the communist state backed up North, that if they could have still some vital support that came to the U.S they could still hold even further. As a people of the ASEAN country i am deeply concern that this terrible event in our history, would be repeated once again, were the political interest was simply emege over the fate of the war battered nation.
For some reason, the fall of south vietnam angers me, people wanted a different type of government but in the end the south had it coming due to poor leadership, corrupt government and weak army, the u.s just wanted to prevent communism but the communist part of vietnam idolized the u.s. At least they're good friends now

I’m a Vietnamese myself, I prefer the communists tbh. The 3 stripes government oppressed many races, religious groups and the Americans committed terrible crimes in the country. Still, we forgive them and would welcome them anytime , just don’t go around saying the republic was the true country. FYI:we have clean drinking water, almost 90% of infrastructure have A/C, cheap clean foods. Stop treating communism countries like its a bad thing
we lost beloved country and fucking betray war
America tried. It poured billions of dollars into South Vietnam and thousands of lives were lost trying to keep the government afloat and Communists contained.
But the links between the French colonisers, the Catholic Mafia and the ethnically Han business elite in the South were just too much for the Americans to confront.
Vietnam wanted to be one country. The Northern peasants wanted it more than the Southern merchants.
The good news was that Western involvement delayed the communist takeover in Vietnam long enough that the Communists didn't go full Maoist/ North Korea. While there were horrible reprisals after the fall of Saigon - Vietnam did not become North Korea. They also got rid of the Khmer Rouge - which was to their credit.
They are now a surprising Western ally that is getting rich off involvement in international markets. Eventually it will get so rich that the middle classes will demand decision making power. Just like Taiwan, South Korea and the Philippines.

When the French defeated and left Vietnam in 1954. The country divided into two partition states: North Vietnam is the communist and the South is Republic under Democracy government. So, let both side of Vietnam run their countries the way they want. The American participated in to assist by providing aids to South Vietnam to fight back the International Communist (that is Soviet Union and China). So, the US helped South Vietnam so long until 1973 and declared to withdraw cutting significant aids to South Vietnam. The let South Vietnam fight alone against North Vietnam (North Vietnam with the helps from Soviet and China)...and so those nations (US, Australia, Korea, Philippines, Thailand and the whole West) under Democracy running away. Sounds great, huh? Ultimately, the citizens of the Republic of South Vietnam collapsed and its people stranded and faced the consequences of all cost: jails, rapes, rootings, refugees, death, poor, loss....You name it. Why the West entered the war rather let South Vietnam taking care of their country from the beginning, so they didn't depend on the West? You promised and ran away from this war.
South Korea got very lucky.
But Vietnam was peaceful and undivided,
You can't force capitalists to be communists and you can't force communists to be capitalists stop acting like all Vietnamese wanted to be communists. Some did, some not.

@@tedmccarron My apologies. I meant it as a parody, as a poke at South Vietnam in comparing it to the Confederate States. Both southern entities are in the latrine of history put there be progressive revolutionary forces. Two thumbs up for "Northern tyranny" in America and Vietnam!
@@BolshevikCarpetbagger1917 yeah but in Subway's the situations were very opposite. In America the north fought to free the slaves and during the Vietnam war North Vietnam fought make all of Vietnam live under communist slavery.
@@tedmccarron Wrong. In both cases the North fought to free people from slavery. In America, black people. In Vietnam their people. In both cases: Your side lost. The Confederacy represents an era when America was "great" to you people just like that dilapidated out house called South Vietnam was "great" for the U.S backed butchers. Both benefited from industrialization, education, and other progressive developments. Both countries were made whole. Vietnam today is one of the most thriving countries in Asia. What you call "tyranny" I call progress.
@@BolshevikCarpetbagger1917 Who was being enslaved by or in South Vietnam? No one. Communism is slavery. It robs people of everything that makes them human and gives their lives meaning. Yes, Ngo Dinh Diem did persecute Buddhists but he was removed and killed. And did the US force former Confederate civilians into torture camps when they won? No. They reconciled and helped them rebuild. Not even the soldiers were punished. Just sent home

Hỡi người Việt, mình biết các bạn có thể tự hào về đất nước mình tự hào dưới cờ đỏ của mình nhưng hãy nhớ rằng họ không phải giặc Mỹ mà là bạn của dân Sài Gòn ta đây, là người hàng xóm luôn giúp đỡ trong chiến tranh đây, bao nhiêu xương máu đổ ra để bảo vệ miền Nam quê hương ta đây.Nay Cộng sản vào xoá lịch sử miền Nam này, nói giặc là Mỹ, người Sài Gòn là đàn em của Niềm Bắc (trong khi đó chưa người nào dân nào chấp nhận Bắc là anh trai ). Tóm lại cộng sản đã xoá não bạn và biến bạn là người ngu xuẩn trước ánh mắt của người Tư Bản, biến các bạn trở thành con người không hiểu sâu xa rộng về tình hình đất nước mình hiện nay tưởng đất nước vương lên trong khi đó dưới nụ cười của bạn thì đất nước đang đi xuống và sẽ rơi vào tay người bạn cũ hay còn nói là kẻ thù cũ của dân ta . Vì thế mau mau tìm hiểu nhanh lên đi tìm hiểu sự thật và chân lí thật sự !
SÀI GÒN MUÔN NĂM !!!
