The US government refused to admit the Soviets and the Chinese had advisers in S. Vietnam even though our forces had killed some Chinese and there were sightings of both in S. Vietnam.

Kolesnich expressed his hope that the Vietnamese people, under the leadership of the Viet Nam Communist Party, will gain greater achievements in their national construction and achieve their target of building Viet Nam towards a wealthy people, a strong nation, and an equitable, democratic and civilised society.
At least they mean well.

Well the U.S. government hides alot of things actually. I'm not suprised they will deny the russian and chinese involvement. Maybe its for our good. Or to hide the fact the Russians and Chinese helped the Vietnamese defeat the U.S. during the 1967 war in Vietnam. It would be quite embarrassing, Since it would mean this is 1 loss to the VCR trio, 1 stale mate with the KCR trio. Man every defeat and stalemate always has the sino-russian duo

How about that reunion being planned for the Cubans who tortured American POW's? Has it been scheduled yet?

We didn't lose anything, the politicians didn't know what the hell they were doing.
To: lizol
Fortunately, Vietnam will be abandoning communism and adopting free markets, so the cause the Soviets fought for will be defeated.

I have a client that was a RECON Marine that participated in the raid to free the POW's and told me as soon as his chopper set down, he began shooting Russians that were exiting the barracks adjacent to the POW camp. He said that they stopped a lot of them that day. Unfortunately, the POW's had been removed from that location in Hanoi and all the raid accomplished was the elimination of a bunch of Russian advisors. That was one of the many surprises the Americans discovered on the Hanoi POW camp raids.

Actually I do believe we lost to Vietnam. The politicians thought we would win, like they always do. It actually written everywhere on the net.

Not really, I knew that years ago.

So, me commie lads, how did you like that little Afghanistan excursion? You remember, when American support for the Afghans sent you running back home with your tails between your legs.
Payback was a bitch, hey??

'helped the Vietnamese defeat the U.S. during the 1967 war in Vietnam.'
the 1967 War? Was that a separate and distinct war from the Vietnam War which ran from 1965-1975?
History.........get some
To: Zenith1138
The American left is responsible for any so-called defeat. PS: The war started long before 1967. Learn a little history before speaking about it.

You and John Kerry.

The war neither started nor concluded in that year. The "defeat", which the Soviets, and their fellow travelers, did indeed have a part in creating, came later, and far away from the battlefields of southeast Asia.
