      @@cusefan5510 yea man no doubt. Not to mention the scenes in his mind of the amazing men that died that day must burn so badly. Like that of Huang the heroic legend who was left on the trail just near the Helo that finally got them out of that hell. He was bleeding out so bad they layed him down and when Black went back for him (without a weapon) he found Huang covered in leeches and mosquitoes draining the last of his blood and Huang pulled out his pistol shakily to hold off the incoming VC and told Black to get to the chopper, then in Vietnamese said “I die” and shot himself before the VC got to him.
      It struck me so hard, what a legend. I can’t imagine what it’s like to have such a warrior give their last moments for you like that.

    I watch this podcast regularly to constantly remind myself how to take responsibility for my life and to feel strengthened by that. Today is a hard day.
    Today my dad told me my uncle is dying of pancreatic cancer complications. We can’t even go to the hospital to say goodbye because of this virus. I am very close to him and he’s been a mentor of sorts in my life. He’s an engineer who has made a big impact on many people’s lives.
    My family thinks the odds are very grim, only my cousin, his son, is holding on to hope. This is very tough and I just felt the need to write about it. It’s hard to think we may not be able to see him if he passes away.

      Thank you all so much for your kind words to a total stranger. My uncle died yesterday at 1pm. He never woke up from a coma he was in. My dad has been torn by this, I’ve never seen him like this. This was his only brother and they were the two closest people in the world. I’m trying to be there for him and for my cousin, it’s all I can do. The hard thing about it is that it wasn’t a bad cancer, the doctor said he could have lived with it for the rest of his life and been fine but my uncle was persistent he wanted to remove it surgically and that’s when everything went wrong. They removed it but the surgery caused many other serious problems. So it’s hard to process someone who was so healthy and full of life just a month ago, all of a sudden gone. It’s awful but we will have to get through it together. Thanks again. God bless.

    The intro was hard to listen to. My family is from Laos and many died in the secret war in support of US troops. I am the first to be born in the USA and serve in the US military.
    At times I am heartbroken about the history of my family’s past. Other times, I am full of gratitude to be born as an American.
    Thanks for writing this book. To this day, all my family members who experience trauma from the war, would not talk about it and still feel betrayed from the Americans who left them to died. This book seems to open up on the kept secrets in that war. Thanks

      If not for honoring the agreement between laos and the u.s. to keep it neutral, which the north Vietnamese didn't, things would have been a lot different... without safe passage through laos, it would have been difficult for the north to use Cambodia at all and seriously affected their supply chain.

For these warriors, and most of all, the fallen and MIA. God bless you all.

    On my worst days in life, these help me realize I have never had a bad day comparatively.
    This includes three bouts with cancer, including the worst while going through a nasty divorce.
    These guys are all pipe hitters. Heros and National Treasures
    As Jacko said under today’s rules of engagement these missions today would never be approved, they’d all be called off, that’s a no go. Gods bless these men and the SF Gods and Angels that watched over them.
    Also spend a lot of time in Asia. Time spent in Danang, Marble Mountain and Hue. All hallowed grounds. I thank God for these brave men

So I know I went out the window but came out on my feet. I'll never know how I crawled out of a door window and landed on my feet. When shit like that happens your body just kinda auto pilots. My brain said lets get out of this truck and my body just did it.

    Thank you for more insights into the Vietnam War and Mr. Meyer's service record. I'm 64, old enough to remember our Living Room War, and never did serve because though possessing a 1-H draft card, Pres. Nixon has instituted the all volunteer army and Pres. Ford had ended the war by the time I graduated from high school in 1974. Not to mention that the yellow beret was too often an option. Instead the Lord has lead me to the inner-city where I serve in ministry whereupon spiritual warfare is more apparent besides the flesh and blood we struggle against anyways.
