It was an “old’s men” war. Plain and simple. I’m supportive of veterans and I’m thankful for all our veterans, but The Vietnam War was a travesty at best and a tool to prop up the military industrial complex at worst. Thank you to all who served and bless you to all who are/planing to.
Moms never kick their kids out They talk the most mess all them years about doing it but always the first one in any and every situation to have your back no matter what right or wrong I fucking love my mom so much
My mother abused me as a child and kicked me out multiple times before i was even 18. Be glad your mother actually did her job, but dont speak like your mother is everyones mom.
A lot of people think the movie was flat. But it was a real story. And the person gets the most impact was Chikie himself. This is the truth about war and about the war where soldiers were fighting to defend not their land. Or many of whom didn’t even know what they were fighting for. People don’t want wars, only politicians do.
Fun fact: After the Tet Offensive, the US had pretty much been in position to win the war. The North Vietnamese Army had been thoroughly crushed. They had hoped to throw the majority, if not all, of their resources into a major, country spanning battle to win. They lost. They lost badly losing most of their war materials, huge casualties, and a majority of the lower and middle ranked officers. The US panicked after the media went hard into anti-US mode. The US lost the political will to fight and the war was a slow grind to a loss despite the fact the NVA would spend years rebuilding. The two biggest things that lost the war for the US were the generals trying to go soft for most of the war thanks to their fear that it would spark a nuclear war. The other was the media which was opposed to the war. Much of the political fervor of the protestors was riled up thanks to the US media reporting which was all negative. The truth would come out years later but no one ever cared. Many think the war was unwinnable which is completely false.
They never technically had a chance to "win" the war. Since the war was between the US and the Communism and the north and south of Vietnam were only the instruments, they were the swords that used to fencing, not the subject of the war itself. Let's say they push all the way back to Hanoi, well, China and USSR would jump in and aid, then more shit would go on then finally thing will settle back to 17th parallel. Another thing to mention, anti-war movement in US was initially sparked by Vietnam and USSR spies, the movement itself is destined to happen as CIA couldn't stop them.
@@duyvan247 Supplies from China and Russia wouldn't have helped much. The loss of manpower and especially the NCO and seasoned officers is what hurt them the most. It wasn't until 1973 that they were almost up to their old numbers. That's 5 years. 13yr old kids were turning 18 by that time to replenish their losses. Note that the US was practically dumping supplies onto the ARVN forces which didn't help that much in the end. It was all about national support which was strong (enforced in fact) by the Communists but not so much by the West.
Ah yes, and the lord of the ring movies DEFINITELY should have been filmed in Middle Earth, and the film crew of Star Wars should have gone out into space for their filming.

I love how his duffle bag has infinite beer cans lol
Obviously blessed by divinity.
In reality he only brought like 60, be he went to men's club to get more once he arrived
@@UncannyLivingyea he had been staying in Saigon for most of his time and regularly drank at the local bar, I’m sure he could have re-upper on beer at anytime
I think beer back then had a higher percentage.
Time-Lord technology, for the geeks and nerds out there. If you’re not one of those then he totally restocked at any place that could sell beer.
man really survived in war to give beer
Honestly the fact they thought he was CIA agent was probably the most hilarious part
But to be honest the CIA has the coolest camo
Tiger Camo
That wasn’t a CIA camo.

@@Vasher-The-Destroyer And none of those units are affiliated with the CIA.
So SOG wasn't?
Such a shame, alot of good people died on both sides for no real good reason
both sides? Nah. Commies deserve it

So damn true whole war was pointless.

The Vietnamese would not agree with that statement. They had a reason to fight.
What a legend.

Isn't that beer like super warm though? Only a madman drinks warm beer.

They're in a wazone. Only crazy people fight for a war they don't believe in.
@@ANPU1991 soooo….military&vets.
Too accurate lol Vet here

Iirc, cold beer isn't served that much that time. Warm beer is common during the war.
Awesome movie. Super underrated.
'getting beer to the middle of a war zone, will be difficult? 'super easy, barely an inconvenience'
Lol when he says "Philidalphea"
Warm PBRs? How the hell did they manage to drink those? I can barely stand them cold!
Pabst did a vid of the real chicke and his friends telling the story of what happened.
