Jeff..Went to Rolling Thunder for the first time ever. I had my daughters with me and let me tell you my littlest daughter had the best time of her life!! she got to as she say's " give high 5's " to ALOT of the riders in the parade. GOD BLESS THEM ALL.
I agree this is THE BEST video of rolling thunder,I have ever seen!! very good job...If only all our POW'S and MIA'S were here to see it!!! Will be in DC tomorow just to watch ROLLING THUNDER...GOD BLESS THOSE THAT, HAVE AND ARE SERVING OUR COUNTY NOW! Mike Conte United States Navy 1992-2000 God Bless you all.
Rolling Thunder riders, carrying our American pride for all of our military men and women to D.C. for those of us that can't make the trip. Makes me proud to say I am an American. My heartfelt thanks to all of you...
I look forward to this weekend, I have been asked to film a piece on RT Magazine's Website and took much inspiration in this video. I take for granted I live 30 minutes from DC but have never seen the rally. I was not alive for the war but born just prior to desert storm so this should bring to life what little coverage I received in class regarding Vietnam.
No, it's a song about those not fortunate enough to be able to avoid military service - and we honor those who sacrificed their lives for our country. BTW, that's Paul Revere and the Raiders doing those songs.
POW~MIA You are never forgotten!!!! As the man said, for you first time vets..THIS IS YOUR WELCOME HOME AND PARADE :) I was there for the Viet Nam return, :'(..I still cry when I think of what our soldiers endured. God bless you ALL!!!
Zuzu, my dad was the greatest American I've ever met. He served in ww11 and talked little about the horrors he witnessed and never spoke about what a hero he should be for serving his country. Being an American, he would say, isn't earned in a snapshot of time, you have to behave like one every day to call yourself a true American. Many don't understand what America stands for - it's not tough-talking or my way or the highway.
Soft, you're right about us not being able to agree. I appreciate still your service and the fact you care greatly for your country. I also agree that it's the politicians who are to blame for putting us into these situations - that's exactly who we protested against during the Nam days and it's exactly who we are trying to make listen know. It's the mission - not the soldiers we have problems with.
Ippy you're the one who quoted Mark Twain. I agree with him - those of us who oppose this war - are brave patriots - demanding our country to get on with the war on terror - not your weak excuse of one.
God bless you veterans, POW and MIA and all unsung heroes who fought in Vietnam against the Viet Cong enemies!! We, the Republic of South Vietnam want to extend a HEARTFELT ThankYou for your service. I hope someday soon that history will 'right its wrong' against the US Veterans who served in Vietnam and the ARVN.
If the mission is honest and just, disention has no traction. You were stabbed in the back in your mind. Those who opposed Vietnam and the Iraq war were thinking of the troops (our fathers, mothers, brothers and sisters), not stabbing them in the back. If a mission is flawed - you're not supporting anyone by continuing.
Japan was protecting their "interests" as was Iraq during Kuwait invasion. When we begin to accept war as a reasonable excuse for protecting one's interests the world's in trouble. We are guilty of the same thing in Nam and Iraq - no matter how we try to sell it.
Ippy, those soldiers who volunteered to serve deserve an honorable mission, honesty from their government and the tools to do their job. The war on Iraq has given them none of the above. The fact that illegal aliens kill more Americans every year is absurd and insulting to the parents, brothers and sisters and friends of those risking their lives in Iraq. If you disagree with what the media says you might concider arguing the points not just whining.
Soft, we were honestly in danger of losing our country in WW11 to two very powerfull countries. We honestly were not in national peril from either Vietnam or Iraq. I'm sure the historians who say that Vietnam prevented the domino theory are the same ones who say "hippies lost the war". Give me some help here - how should one question their government, which is essential in a democracy, without as you say back stabbing the troops?
What a joke. Even Rolling Thunder admits that only a little over half its members are any kind of vet at all, much less Vietnam vets. This event, like the Gathering of Beagles, is jam packed with whiskey tango wannabes.

Thank you. This is my goal, to get a trike and trailer to carry my electric wheelchair and to someday visit "The Wall". I will never forget.

Hmm, I don't see you correcting this guy for calling you a "brother in arms."

You probably find it hard to believe the earth is round. Who cares.
Okay, you don't think the Rolling Thunder's website has credible info. No problem.
please search true riders united brothers and sisters
