Thanks for posting.

For those who have forgotten or were not around, let us not forget the nightly dose of Cronkite's film footage of wounded and dead American GI's being carried onto helicopters.

BTW, we never lost a battle during the Viet Nam war.

Semper Fi,
Kelly

The only major communist offensive of the war, Tet in 1968, was a total military failure,but it had some political success in the US with all the leftist commie sympathizers that unfortunately had the ablility to breathe at the time.

Well, you might be interested to know that most people of my generation don't know that fact. (The people born after 1973)

I was surprised to find out that the US military withdrew from Vietnam in 1973, but the communists did not take over South Vietnam until 1975.

The way my liberal teachers talked about Vietnam, it sounded like coward American servicemen fled in front of the heroic communist guerrillas.

The liberally-indoctrinated teachers and professors have re-written history, but the students are less docile lately. The Internet has taught my generation to be skeptical about these "history" and "political science" lessons.
