American Navy In Vietnam, The
My grandpa was the Huey Medic evac pilot during the Viet Nam War. He told me story especially during the fall of
Sai Gon. He told me that he keep on flying back and forth to help the U.S. and Vietnamese civilian to escape from the VC. And when it was his time to go he refused to go with the U.S. and stay back behind to defend his belive and the church. Because of his heroic act, many many life was life and his life was spared too. The VC seeing how he didn't just flee but stay back to protect the church and all who was innocent hiding inside the church . However, he was imprisoned for 13 year including the re-education camp. And when he was finally free, he have to fight another war to become a fully U.S. citizen and when he finally is and living in the U.S. he have to fight another one is with the VA and how many people view the Viet Nam veteran as a murdered and sometime accused my grandpa as one not known lying that he was a huey medic pilot that save life. He also told me story how his Friend at that time was the captain of the huey got shot by a sniper forcing my grandpa to fly alone while trying to save his life by his side while trying to land in the hot zone to save both the vietnamese soldier and the American soldier even occasionally some NVA and the Viet Cong. He also told me a story when he also got shot but save by the an inch only tearing his flight suit.
A few years ago, he give me his photo flying in the Huey by some American Journalists and we think he was on some footage but still can't find it.
And as up today, he is alive and well.
@A student Pilot Life Send my thank you to your grandpa I suggest you do a interview with him and post to your channel
I can send you a list of questions to ask for a historical record to be digitized and remembered for future study of Vietnam
His service to Vietnamese and Americans is much appreciated. Welcome home to your father.
Me watching 👀 in hopes to see my dad. He was deployed on this ship 67-68. He was helicopter mechanic, and door gunner on the Huey. Thankfully I got my dad back. Many from my generation did even get to meet their dad. But he was deeply scared .
Most did not realize that the US Navy played a big role in the Vietnam War. There aircraft carriers launched sortie after sortie during the entire war, not to mention the brown water Navy which patrolled the small rivers all around Vietnam, they inserted special forces into enemy held areas, the United States Navy did a fantastic job and to all those that served during this horrific war this combat veteran salutes everyone of you.
It's crazy to see almost exactly what my dad went through in the Navy during that time in the Vietnam War.
Same
I traveled (on USS Blue) with the Maddox in VN in '69-'70
We patrolled along the coast on the DMZ with gun fire support.
Bruh my uncle was in the navy and he was in this war but luckily he survived thank God 🙏
Same, but my dad.
Navy troops doesn’t go in the jungle . They don’t get to the action like the Marine or airbornes … navy basically like artillery support

My Dad, is a member of the Tonkin Gulf Yacht Club
Mine also
So am I! 1970 and 1972.
My dad was in the Navy during vietnam. He won't talk about it though.
I thank your father for his service! I am also a U.S. Navy Vietnam Veteran. My father was a WWII Veteran. He rarely talked about his WW11 service. I understand as I rarely talk about my service in Vietnam. You should be very proud of your father for his service to our country. I have only recently opened to my family about my service in Vietnam.
My sister's brother-in-law's neighbor's uncle was an AO on the Kitty Hawk
What year
My baby mama cousins daddy was a seal
I think this was the military stance before wesmoreland took over as commander
My dad was part of this he belong to agent orange U.S. navy. He is a Filipino BTW ❤
No mention of the navys chopper detachment known as the seawolves along the mekong.
My Uncle Denny was here somewhere in the brown water Navy.
The brown navy went up the rivers (River Patrol) ..
That's crazy my uncle Danny was in the brown water to, never heard him talk about it but my dad (blue water) told me some stuff. Uncle Danny was on a small boat thats job was to do geological tests way up into all the different water channels and rivers and map it for other boats so they knew which vessels could go where.
Plz find something on the Brisbane 41my dad served on her
my coach is a navy vietnam vet

@Joel Galvan Thank you were you E3 in that time?
Brown water Navy...
nice propanganda ,I love this.
FACT !
we have here arcadio garduque
Im trying to find the story of the US Navy ship coming up a river/canal during high tide to help Army or Marines ,being directed where to fire guns by an Army or Marine Enlisted or Officer walking along side on land .thank you
The Gulf of Tonkin was not a lie. It was a matter of who shot first...
Absolutely. My Dad was there.
USS Horne..first deployment out of Hunters Point Navel Shipyard..good will your of the orient and deployed with carriers in Viet Nam at DMZ.
Pretty strange stuff going on ?
Going to full out war over a couple of pt boats sounds fishy to me.
You have no idea what your talking about !
not "American Navy" it is "US Navy"
Did my time. 6 years.
What? No monitors, douche boats or zippos???
Vietnamese don’t need to smuggle weapons from the direction of the sea. However if you could please look into the map of Vietnam 🇻🇳 then you will see that Vietnam is sharing border 1297km with China
T he Chinese..and and The Russians..supported the North..with material.and advisors.."The Chinese were also providing infantry".."
If all of the dead of the war in Vietnam (USA estimates) were added together--civilians north and south, military north and south, plus US personnel, are added up, it is in the vicinity of 3.2 million. The cost in 2019 USD is placed at around 864 billion. That's $265,000 per dead person, regardless of which side, civilian or not, etc. Obviously the cost and numbers skew even less favorably/intelligently if devoted purely to one side or another. Money well spent, wouldn't ya say? 😢Wonder if all those folks would have gladly "stayed home," metaphorically speaking, if offered that amount in cash, or even half that--particularly in light of the ultimate failure of the enterprise from an American standpoint. Hmmmm....And then there's the question of whether it would have been cheaper and more effective in the long run to just shower down/airdrop cash U$D in SW Asia and the Middle East in recent decades, rather than wage war. I'm as genuine a patriot as any in my beloved home country, USA, but I'm not a fan of the MIC that Eisenhower warned of, or the racket of war that Gen Smedley Butler USMC spoke of. Blind jingoism and empty hubris notwithstanding, please begin to THINK, people. Please. It may already be too late...
Shame on some if the REMFs, shame on the hippies because if how these young men were treated
Attack on Maddox proved to be false.
You know nothing about this ....
Admiral James Stockdale who spent 7 years as a POW in North Vietnam was at Tonkin and said basically the same thing it was false. That said the U.S. still needed to prevent Communism from taking over South Vietnam.
All that firepower and tech and still couldn't conquer Charlie. Tough buggers weren't they.
We could have beat them easily , and they were beaten until the problem in the US began getting out of hand .
@@stephenmccandless3167 If the public were supporting the war effort and the US stayed how many casualties would have been avoided in Saigon?
1297 km border in between Vietnam and China. So why would they use the South China Sea when they can import from their allies (China) Because Transport weapon by land a lot more easier

Armed with modern weapons but still lost when confronted with VC 😊😊😊
They had modern weapons from Russia and China. And Vietcong was wipeout after 1968, NVA took over after America was tired of war.
Washington so called leaders lost the war. Their idiocy knew no bounds...especially Johnson.
FALSE ...The war was prolonged due to various reasons . Drugs were one of these reasons . We were not allowed to win this war .
you can tell johnson is lying- but hes a democrat and we all shouldnt be surprised
by your analogy barrack obama is the biggest liar ever......thank you bro
@@captrodgers4273 you can't be surprised that barrak Obama was the biggest liar of all time!
@@darkhorse1691 Trump has taken that spot now...
Also...he's the nuttiest liar - his brain got stolen.
😁
Modern navy can't fight like this just a bunch of cooks ..laundry and janitors
What do you know ? NOTHING !
It's all a lie.....
