      The media was also one of the reasons most of these men got booed and called baby killers when they returned back to the US. Should have just let these men do their jobs without a camera in their face on the front lines

      ​@BannedSports yours is an incredibly ignorant statement. You were obviously never in. Most of these images are combat camera. Those are service members whose job it is to document the shit. They aren't combat arms, but they are up front. So they get a lot of hi-speed training like shooting schools and Airborne.

    My grandad just past away back in March I think. It's hard to remember the day when I try not to remember it too much. God rest his soul but he served in Vietnam with the 69th Signal Battalion I believe. Not sure if they're still active but that's what I read on one of the letters he wrote back.
    He rarely ever talked about Vietnam, and if he did it was just that it was a bad place to be at that time. When he was in the hospital during those last couple of weeks, my dad stayed with him in a hospital up in Houston. It was then when he told my dad stories and experiences about his time in Vietnam.
    One really sticks out in my mind that my dad told me after the funeral. Since he was in the Signal Corps, he was in a radio or radar station, and none of the men inside had a weapon in the building. I'm assuming they were in a FOB of sorts but one day they got ambushed and the station building my grandad was in came under fire. What he did once the bullets started flying always makes him in my mind a far more courageous man that I could ever hope to be.
    He ran out of the building and across an open area under enemy fire to grab a couple of rifles, and then proceeded to run back to the station and return fire at the enemy. I'm not sure how long he did this for, but at the end of it all he ended up being awarded one of three bronze stars he would earn during his I think tour in Vietnam.
    I wear a copy of his dogtags that he made every day now to keep a part of him with me. As it stands I plan to enlist in the Air Force eventually, but things are getting worse in the ME and Europe by the day. I have this extremely bad feeling that I'll be faced eith a choice to have to go fight, if I have a choice at all. If it ever comes down to that, I just hope my grandad and God will be watching over me while I'm over there.

    My first husband went in that mess. I wish I had not been born when I was born. All I see around me in this country now is that war that never ended. It is just being fought over here in the US. What was the point of all the work I did, all the studying I did, the scrimping and saving and always trying to do the right thing. It was all pointless. The ugliness of it. I wish I had not been born when I was born. Maybe I would’ve had some happiness. Maybe....

Can you express that to Mr. Anderson whose son had finally graduated and he was curious about Seattle and he went them to CHAP or CHOP and before he even got out of the car, they shot him three times and then dragged his body in there and would not let anyone have it FOR THREE DAYS.

    Two of my uncles were days away from being called up in the draft when the war ended. I asked them if they were scared, they said Not at all, because it was what all their friends and dad had done as well. Even if they died, why should they be treated special. I guess thats what they call a sense of duty

    Like damn. I've seen a lot of war footage in my day, even some of the more grueling stuff from The Holocaust, but that clip just ruined my day, to be completely honest. It's not like it's explicitly gory or anything, it's just how pitifully the man becomes limp with death as the soldier who shoots him point-blank does not even flinch... I really wonder what the context behind that was.
