    The Veterans are an amazing group of men ❤
    Thank you for your Service Sir, it takes a badass individual to endure what you did during your time serving in the Vietnam War, you and the other men had an incredible amount of mental and physical physical strength.
    This 64 year old woman would have never have made it home, I'm a tough, determined ole lady, that said I know I don't have the mental fortitude these gentleman have.
    May God Bless our Veterans ❣️

    I said it's Memorial Day and many should be watching these today. Search and Destroy day in and day out. If you got set down in Central Highlands man, you were in for wicked humps. Chu Chi in spring of 68 the B52 went up and down and basically stopped another Dak To. This man is very right, you will never be as close again as to that man you fought next to. You fought for him.

    Well... you are different than me.... you Served. I didn't, for that I will never forget.
    What a Good man.
    You hiked the A/T. I always a couple of weeks at a time. Never the whole thing.
    I too am glad we appreciate Vets a little better. It can never be enough!

    Thanks for your service! I was on a Coast Guard buoy tender that Christmas night on Miami beach. I was 17. I took the easier softer path. God bless you, I'm glad you made it home.

    Marc, thank you for you service. So glad you made it home. You had a rough job in Vietnam. You've done so much in your life. How great that is. My brother & brother in-law were both in Vietnam and made it home. They were fortunate to be in artillery. God Bless you. Grammy from Texas

    He is an awesome Man. This interview confirms how messed up the Army is.. Threw them out to walk around in the jungle with no objective. Sure am glad I joined the Navy. :)

    Great this troop made it home. Great soldier and I think the man also talking is a Vet, that is a retired Lawyer? If so your story was great also, you knew he was in the mess.

    All the cheap equipment was compliments of McNamara! He had it all down to a number and a price tag! Of course not his paycheck, that was spot on!

    What a decent guy. (Unlike Ho Chi Minh who adopted a pseudonym "Man of Light" just as so many Democrats in the US do.)
