@@anthonyprovenzano2347 Don't apologize. The communist Government and culture of Vietnam is doing just fine. They are at peace and appear successful and content. There was no guarantee the so-called "Free" Government would have done anything better.
Thank you so very much from each and every one of you Vietnam Veterans. God bless you and much thanks and gratitude for your service. 🇺🇸 🇺🇸. Myself, my older brother and my dad are all AF veterans.
This was a very moving story. I wish we could have given my father this level of tribute. He was a US Marine pilot in WWII, Pacific theater. I hope to see him and my mother again. Thank you for sharing this moment with us.
I am teaching my son that if we come upon a Veteran, no matter what war or service, he tells them Thank You For Your Service!! I see the sacrifices that families make not just the soldier!! We thank them and their families and honor them where ever they are!! GOD BLESS YOU!!! We Will always remember!!!
As a Vietnam vet I can't tell you how much I appreciate a thanks for my service. Also when my brother vets say welcome home it makes me extremely proud of my service
Thanks to all that served in Vietnam; and the wives and kids that endured their father being deployed when you are a 7 year old military dependent. Dad made $78 a month in 1965, in 1977 I made $192 a month, when I got out in 1980 I was making $375 a month as a sergeant in the united states army, went into the active reserves and got out in 1984. :)
I returned in 1971. I was treated very well, even in San Francisco, where I left from the airport to return to Savannah, GA. No problems. People were very nice.
I spent 21 years in the Army Special Operations Community and a few of my instructors were Vietnam Veterans. These guys are top notch and I love each of them and appreciate every bit of knowledge that they passed on to me.
I am so sorry for how your were treated. Not cool. I salute you a million times to make up for the lack of proper welcome and saying thank you. God bless you all and may God protect you always. You are the true heroes. 🙏 🇺🇸🎖🪖❤️
Today is National Vietnam Veterans Day. I always say, they didn't get what they deserved, and they didn't deserve what they got. Thank each and every one of you. I hope to accompany my brother soon on an Honor Flight.
Thanks, Fox for showing us this!! This is what we should have done when they came home from Vietnam for those men and women to honor them and those that did not come home and still Missing . We honor them always!!
Thank you all Vietnam veterans and welcome home all gave some some gave all and for the families of the Vets who gave all thank you for your ultimate sacrifice and there's they are not forgotten love you Dad
Now I’m proud to be a Vietnam veteran,It’s good to see the people that didn’t think Vietnam was a war,now I can look people in the eye and tell them,I’m a proud Vietnam vet,Bye god,A proud veteran of Vietnam
You won the war eventually Vietnamese live today by the American spirit. Fridom and far away from the communist ideas. You are the policeman of the world you are responsible for the peace in the world. Heavy duty Thank you for your service from Israel
My grandfather was in the Navy he was a Honor flight veteran in world war 2 and my Papas friend joined the army and served 9 years in the army and my papas other friend served in the airborne
I'm sobbing. I'm sobbing for all the years they were put down, spit on, called baby killers. It wasn't their fault. They were drafted. They didn't want to be there, just as much as the majority of Americans didn't want them there. It was no fault of their own. It was white men in suits at the White House who were the real baby killers and deserve to be spat on. These men and women are heros. It kills me that not all got this welcome, and I pray that the rest who are still with us do. Taking up a letter writing campaign in my hometown starting now, to thank the vets. Especially the Vietnam vets. It was an unfair and unjust war, and they were children. Nothing but babies. To every vet out there. From every war--thank you for your service. We love you and appreciate you. We're so happy you're home, and so sorry for your brothers and sisters who didn't make it.
Why can't you help this Nam Vet who needs help repairing my home ? That is falling down ? I no doubt made a mistake saying this , for I love where I live I just need help . I hate asking for help at 72 but I truly need it . I just don't want to lose my home living here for 40 year by itself! I moved here to have peace and quiet , now I need help that I never thought I would need, I survived Vietnam and give me respect somehow without begging ! Thank you . Vietnam Vet Tom
if you look up medal of honor recipients during the Vietnam war about 75% of the recipients got it for selflessly jumping on a grenade to save a fellow comrade.
I 'read hats' and look for military insigna every time I am public, and always shake hands and thank veterans for their service and all they gave when I see them! Last week in our local grocery store I saw a couple shoping , and he had on his Army cap, so I stopped them and shook hands with him. As we talked for a minute, he mentioned that he had been ashamed to show his service until recently, and I was only the 2nd person to stop and thank him! That is disgraceful! Did the idiots that protested so vehemently ever stop to think , exactly what the Viet Cong would have have done if no one had opposed them? Did they think that they would have just said "o k we won, let's go home now", or would they just have kept going as long as no one opposed them? Bullies don't stop just because they won a fight, it just gives them permission to go on to bigger , or weaker opponents! These Veterans flights are a great, but belated way to show them how grateful we are for them, in so many ways, for all of us to live free! THANK YOU ALL FOR ALL YOU GAVE, (not just the ones on the flight!) y
Good thing grand mother and grand father were receiving their social security checks that they worked for their entire life, right, that is where we wnt to have a roof over our head in 1965
Do you know Heronimo Lopez? From 1963-1965 he was at Ft Campbell KY 101 Airborne Div. He served in Nam. He was a Spec5 in 1965 and managed the G3 operations Annex at Ft Campbell. He was married with 2 children. He was from New York City. He'd be 78 to 80 years old by June 2022.
Welcome home Brother's and Sister's. Hoorah. I'm sure glad my parent's were not one of those dirty hippies. My father is a Vietnam Veteran. He got out in the 1990's.
These veterans are really pulling one off on the younger generation. They've always portrayed themselves as victims of politicians and an unsupportive American public. What they didn't get in the 60s-70s they're sucking out of the present generation. It was an illegal war. The US never declared war on Vietnam. EVERY ONE of these guys made a choice to go to an ever increasing unpopular war...they were NOT forced to go. They never had control in the war despite all the incredible resources they had at their disposal. Yes, they had several advantages. There was also the problem of war crimes against the Vietnamese people. It got so bad in the later years of the war that US soldiers "fragged" (grenade) their own officers to resist orders. They must take some of the responsibility for politicians and the American public to turn on the war....and even them. They were not all "saints" over there...anymore than the enemy they fought were. For me, they're much more of an embarrassment to themselves and my generation today....than they were during and after the war. They never really grew up and moved forward.
I am South Vietnamese, and I am very thankful those who protect peace in South Vietnam where my grandma and grandpa lived.
Thank you an I am sorry we didn’t save the south

My Dad retired from the US Navy. He served as a Combat Medic during Vietnam. God bless our Veterans.
The honor flight network needs more attention, please send these vets to DC, time is limited. They are all heroes and we need to pay back
These men and women were done so wrong they deserve so much love and respect and acknowledged as true HEROS!!
This are the real Americans capable of dying for America, Liberties and Freedom. I wish Politicians learn from this group of courageous Americans
